even at the bottom of midnight
when you've watched me come undone.
even under cover of daylight
when I've b***oned up my tongue.
I'm living in a world of stage fright
while you wait to see me undefended not pretending now.
so put your arms around this hollow
like a castle made of sand.
put a wall between this sorrow
and the riches in my hands.
it's about as far as I go
to let you see my heart again
it stands above this frozen road.
slow down keep your eyes on me.
slow down cause you're almost free and all I want yeah all I need to say: it's not so far away.
so high that you get over
and closer than your breath.
so low that you can't get
under the moment of your death.
I did not come here for saving
I'm just trying to accept the way it is the way it is. you float along...
slow down keep your eyes on me.
slow down cause you're almost free and all I want yeah all I need to say: it's not so far away.
when you've watched me come undone.
even under cover of daylight
when I've b***oned up my tongue.
I'm living in a world of stage fright
