From morning to night I stayed out of sight
|
Didn't recognize I'd become
|
No more than alive I'd barely survive
|
In a word...overrun
|
|
Won't hear a sound
|
From my mouth
|
I've spent too long
|
On the inside out
|
My skin is cold
|
To the human touch
|
This bleeding heart's
|
Not beating much
|
|
I murmured a vow of silence and now
|
I don't even hear when I think aloud
|
Extinguished by light I turn on the night
|
Wear its darkness with an empty smile
|
|
I'm creeping back to life
|
My nervous system all awry
|
I'm wearing the inside out
|
|
Look at him now
|
He's paler somehow
|
But he's coming round
|
He's starting to choke
|
It's been so long since he spoke
|
Well he can have the words right from my mouth
|
|
And with these words I can see
|
Clear through the clouds that covered me
|
Just give it time then speak my name
|
Now we can hear ourselves again
|
|
I'm holding out
|
For the day
|
When all the clouds
|
Have blown away
|
I'm with you now
|
Can speak your name
|
Now we can hear
|
Ourselves again
|
