Sliding forever,
Temptations run.
I'm wondering whether
I have yet begun.
Before dawning, ground my feet.
You say that I can only be all you make me.
Before dawning, ground my feet.
Your thunder's coming down and I can hardly hear.
They'll strike you to the ground with all you held so near.
Before the dawning comes the darkness hides your face,
You'll find your way and then you're lost without a trace.
Hey, look around,
looking down,
You'll never see me.
I'm standing right by your side,
You'll never hear me.
What did you say?
Did you mean that I was dying?
I can't explain what I've been.
I'm shaking.
I'm looking out, looking in,
You'll never see me.
I don't know why,
Do I try to make believe?
I take a rest, take a breath,
And take what's mine,
But I don't know why.
I don't know why.
After all, there's nothing left to say,
Words are never free.
Sleep beneath the thought of yesterday.
Lay in dust around me,
Shut the eyes that never found me.
Loneliness won't hear you when you call.
Took my time to see me,
Hide the face, but don't believe it:
Could you be the only one to fall?
Shut my eyes.
Follow me, as I
leave behind
Every breath I've known,
And as I sleep would I let you hide,
All your fears Alone,
And now you'll never cry for you,
Stained with chrams of all we know,
So stretch the skin over my eyes,
When I die,
As the days slowly pass me by,
Could you keep me from wondering why,
With a word to wash away
Glaze over me,
echoing all I see.
And I stand alone, all I've known: overthrown
Come, take a hand. Would you grace a tired man?
Slip through my skin.
Nowhere I can follow him.
I laid it all before your feet,
Instate your wings to fly.
I never thought to question why.
Fade into sleep.
I won't fall in too deep.
Faith to remind,
All that's left, I've left behind.
You meet with all that you desire,
A perfect place to be.
Don't cry for those you cannot see.
Cry.
Glaze over me, echoing all I see.
Slip through my skin.
Nowhere I can follow him.
And I stand alone, all I know, overthrown.
I could crawl
beneath it all for you.
With words that lied, the smile they hide in you.
Just leave it all behind.
Choking inside, fear you hide away.
Tangled below, the faces show decay.
As the sun falls to your feet,
And the choices seem to slip away.
Lost in the shade.
Strips of you are peeling through the core,
Drowning who, and all that you adore.
As the sun falls to your feet,
And the choices seem to slip away.
Lost in the shade.
Who can save you when you're down?
And who decides which way the penny falls?
Wish it away.
