[02:55.69] The sudden realization that not all is what it seems
[03:03.01] Rises somehow exponentially
[03:08.78] It turns from a cry into a wail
[03:14.00] Then a scream and then a howl
[03:18.12] An endless broken dull soliloquy
[03:22.94]
[03:26.11] Pain can force the hand and turn the mind
[03:33.15] The pictures taint the judgement every time
[03:40.61] Then I turn around and see a wreck strewn on the road
[03:48.86] The pictures and the pain you'll never know
[03:54.29] The pictures and the pain that I was good enough
[03:59.05] To keep from scarring you
[04:03.68] Some things are meant for you and you alone
[04:09.25]
[04:11.36] And so I add more fuel to the fire
[04:18.82] And try to find an answer in the pyre
[04:27.22] At first the flames a comfort but the smoke gets in the eyes
[04:34.61] There's only so much left that one can burn
[04:39.74] And now I find I'm dancing 'round the ashes of the bridges that I've burned
[04:49.65] I take nothing from the lessons that I've learned
[04:54.53]
[04:57.27] And so the wheel relentlessly goes round
[05:04.76] Just cuts the rut a little deeper down
[05:12.36] This youthful smile has turned into a frown
[05:17.76] The eyes forever down
[05:21.79] The spark forever drowned
[05:24.33]
[06:42.11] I'll sing as I go
[06:48.53] I've learned well that it's best not to know
[06:56.26] And I use up the last of what's left
[07:02.32] In a vain effort just to forget
[07:07.18]
[07:10.89] This arm contracts as it's pulled
[07:17.55] It's disturbing the calm of the pool
[07:24.32] I am lost in this mournful refrain
[07:29.50] While re-analyzing this stain
[07:35.63] This tainted wreck of lies again
[07:42.69]
[07:45.18] And if what you said is true
[07:52.03] I'm condemned to repeat 'till I'm through
[07:58.69] least until I can learn to forget
[08:03.72] Or learn simply not to notice
[08:07.87]
[08:11.31] And this dream I could weep
[08:17.79] So profoundly I finally could sleep
[08:23.97] Undisturbed by the demons and shades
[08:29.60] And this endless cycle of betrayal
[08:34.01]
[08:35.50] Oh how we fell
[08:42.64]
[08:49.06] Aand how is one supposed to mourn if one is not entirely sure what has died
[09:03.29] And if it's dead and if it's dead and if it's dead and if it's dead why can't I cry
[09:12.50]
[09:17.50] And all the things you told me that you read upon my palm they were lies
[09:30.35] Say that they were lies
[09:39.55]
[02:55.69] The sudden realization that not all is what it seems
[03:03.01] Rises somehow exponentially
[03:08.78] It turns from a cry into a wail
[03:14.00] Then a scream and then a howl
[03:18.12] An endless broken dull soliloquy
