Oh what times
We find ourselves living
All our friends betrayed
What did they say?
I want to keep us alive
And keep you right next to me
With every word
You pull away
Be still
Don’t let them in
Oh what tides
We find ourselves swimming
(the tide will pull us in just wait and let it win)
The moon keeps drawing us out
To the sea
And every time I reach you
(Every time, every time)
Every time I feel you
(I reach for you, I feel for you)
You sink beneath
(This endless night this endless night)
this endless night
When will it cease?
Now all our laws fall short
I keep rising in the dark
Thinking on the start
The silent pause
Before it all went wrong
In the daylight
It all looks bad
But in the sigh of sleep
While stone walls weep
Heaven in a song
To keep us holding on
What difference is left
You said what you meant
Lyin’ through teeth
What, you think that you can fool me?
Well, I see you:
I’m a seer, I’m a seer.
What will be now
Has always been
You’ll be staring down every mirror
Seeing it all a bit more clearly
Screaming why oh why?
I’ll be running out the door
Running for something more
And you’ll say why?”
You’ll be staring down every mirror
(I’m on a red-eye / for the last time)
Growing grey, old, and weary
(don’t wanna hear you / to be near you)
Singing “why, oh why?
(Gonna be fine / when I realize / all of your lies / all of your lines)
I’ll be running out the door
(yes I see through / all the half-truths)
Running for something more
(to the real you / yes I see you)
And you’ll say “why?”
