|
I saw the light dance on your face |
|
Paint the shadows of your shape |
|
Back when the season made the days so long |
|
And if I knew my time would come |
|
With the lines rehearsed but never sung |
|
I'd leave the chorus on your tongue |
|
I swear |
|
Now I look around to see the ground beneath my feet |
|
Every second takes a thousand days away from me |
|
And if i close my eyes |
|
I hear the gates swing wide |
|
And by the morning light |
|
I will have seen both sides |
|
I've got a funny feeling that it's my day to leave |
|
Shoulders down the sweat drips across my cheek |
|
As I turn I can taste the salt in the shallow sea |
|
I feel their hearts beating next to me |
|
I hear the chatter of my teeth |
|
And I look around to see the ground beneath my feet |
|
The final thrill, the quiet spill, the vile retreat |
|
Do you see the waves running away from me? |
|
You taste the cold here in the air i breathe |
|
Why'd you let me go? 'Cause I can no longer see |
|
And I scream |
|
Oh my god |
|
Oh my god |
|
Oh my god |
|
Oh my god |
|
Oh my god |
|
Now I look around to see the ground beneath my feet |
|
Every second takes a thousand days away from me |
|
If I close my eyes |
|
I hear the gates swing wide |
|
And by the morning light |
|
I will have seen both sides |
|
So why'd you let me go? |
|
I can no longer see |
|
And I can't breathe |
