Ensanguining the skies,
How heavily it dies,
Into the west away
Past touch and sight and sound
Not further to be found
How hopeless underground
Falls this remorseful day
The sun has set in me, but your dept it couldn't be redeemed.
It's showing as empty as I feel.
White knuckle clutches the steering wheel as the concrete sinks of approaching steel.
I sold you out for my weight in pounds, now I am driven hopelessly underground.
I tell the face in the mirror turned white, oh I drove off a cliff alright.
Past human touch and sound and sight
I was to change it back but it's too late to mend
Too afraid to take reason, I chose the easy treason
And I want to be taken back, but I can't pretend that it could ever mend and this remorseful day ends.
I trusted authority to fulfil my dream of being free
I chose to run and not to fight and it threw me out into the darkest night
Past human touch and sound and sight.
I was to change it back but it's too late to mend
Too afraid to take reason, I chose the easy treason
And I want to be taken back, but I can't pretend that it could ever mend and this remorseful day ends.
I should have stayed on track, but I took the money and turned my back
I cheated and was myself cheated, relentlessly defeated.
I wish I could turn back time, take the side of my own kind.
But your words just pulsed right through me, what good did treachery do me?
700 cars crashed through my head, the terminus for the sheepishly mislead
Lies in ostracization, self-inflicted termination.
With a screech falls my unfortunate wheel this was my regret of a final deal
I have no more cards to play, hence this remorse from me.
