The night I woke in laughter
the pain came surely after
tried to rise above the sinking feeling
then the rain fell through my ceiling
the lives I lead are not a strangers
and the quiet I need protects me from danger
I have relied on some strangers notion
close my eyes I am thinking emotion
all I have ever wanted
isn't so strangely out of sync
with where I am now
and if the truth remains in verses
I know the worst is over now
over land and sea in the motion
I have survived more on heat than immersion
I have relied on some divine notion
close my eyes
think I am sick from the motion
all I have ever wanted
isnt so strangely out of sync
with where I am now
and if the truth remains in verses
I know the verse is over now
and with a stronger tie than worship
I know you are there following me
through all the verses I write
and if my truth remains in front of me
I know you are there
I know the worst is over now
No one knows her
I've seen you hold her
trembling arms and fiery eyes
things you tell her, she wont remember
The moment is all she holds in hand
I can see her smile
I can say her name
the face I see
we are both the same
If I am her
why do I damn her, by I hoping she will slowly slip away?
Am I hoping she will drown and slip away?
And if only this time I know...
Years have passed her
and many asked her
like quiet knights in a church bells ring
If you take her, you'll never break her
Don't give her dreams
She will only slip away
Am I hoping she will drown and slip away?
And if only this time I'd know she'll stop to look away
She fakes her mind out in an open door
She is waiting
and I know there is still some light around her eyes
She'll take a sad song
and you knew it was not funny
and you know she's only seeing you the way
the way a madman feels inside a lifeless body
and I know she's only seeing me the way...
And I'm hoping she'd drown and slip away
am I hoping I will slowly drift away?
