lyrics

PART I:
here on this mortal coil
we shared a little time
savior you were a friend of mine
gaze in the watchful eyes
of the beholder
I was in the frontline
you were over my shoulder

wanted to be assured
of your intensions with me
I’m on the diving board
springing for sanity
smile for the crowd
as you shake my hand
and now you’re sitting in with another band

can I feel your arms around me
as I struggle for a breath and sigh
do you believe in a life hereafter
can we really ever say goodbye

my insecurity might be the death of me
and I’’ll rewrite these lines into infinity
and the midnight wind
whispers through your hair
saying goodnight noises everywhere

and there’s a feeling that enshrouds me
as I glimpse your spirit passing by
I’ve never been afraid of dying
tell me, are we really saying goodbye

PART II:

never knew where to go
you were everybody’s foe
where have you been

Now you’re all better now
it didn’t matter anyhow
it’s time to begin

When you started causing trouble
You didn’t know
and you know this next one’s double
it’s time to go


But I still listen through the wire
I’m dancing in your friendly fire...

Doors will slam and rooms will spin
Hearts will break and break again


PART III:
As all the lives you’ve spoken
fade from recent memory
I’m still a different kind of broken
and you have no use for me

PART I REPRISE:

We ventured way too far
off the charted course
stumbled into bed
fresh off some high horse
We sugarcoat it all
if our friends ask questions
lay the blame on my bad sense of direction

So let’s put up a fight
for another night
this stream of consciousness
sure feels alright
I can find some comfort
in a world turned colder
when I’m in the front line
and you’re over my shoulder

Second chances for second guesses
buy us time until we die
our lives shift around other people’s messes
to pay the bills before we’re saying goodbye

Welcome to the world...
