lyrics

Your words fall like glass,
from a shattered sky,
the winds will take these thoughts away.
No it's not fear, but a feeling,
that cuts like a knife.
Always unsure, you could be dreaming.
We're all running away from life,
answers don't come in pills,
I don't think they ever will,
so why not just make up your mind.

and the truth will not hide it's face,
no not this time.
The ending that you saw,
just didn't turn out the way we planned,
now we're frozen here we stand,
and we thaw
still amazed at how things went wrong..

we try fixing what's falling apart.

Your eyes paint the world,
in all different shades,
a light that takes all pain away.
Like roots from a tree,
start from the bottom,
and assemble the rest of me.
Closing your eyes,
drift to my bed,
set me on fire while I'm sleeping,
drip your last tear,
into my wound,
then I can share you bleeding.

and the truth will not hide it's face,
no not for you.
The ending that you saw,
just didn't turn out the way we planned,
now we're frozen here we stand,
and we thaw
still amazed at how things went wrong..

we try fixing what's falling apart.

and your words fell,
and I crumbled,
like autumn leaves,
under careless feet.
hung for too long,
wide awake,
carelessly dreaming.
Tied to no end, strung by a line,
singing these songs without meanings.
Catching myself, just as I fall,
hoping that you would be here.

You're my eyes,
my tears,
my heart,
my cries, (No more tears)
my pain,
my anger,
my love and my hate.
my scars,
my frown,
my blood,
this crown, (Dead Inside)
the end,
this passion,
my lover, my friend,
my wings,
my fire,
my deepest desire, (Throw me in)
my hope,
my will,
my reason to try,
the air, (this is it)
my lungs,
the way that I breathe,
my fear,
my pulse,
you're all that I need..

no more tears...
