Still my heart, cease the beating quickened by.
|
Your passing grace.
|
Better to fix my gaze ahead and forget, forget everything.
|
For now just keep on walking, swallow the words back.
|
Down and pray for nothing.
|
Steel myself and melt back into the shadows.
|
Continue down this lonely path, where love and joy fear to tread.
|
An island of strength free from all feeling.
|
For now just keep on walking.
|
Swallow the words back down and pray for nothing.
|
Easier to just let go, then to fight and lose.
|
An idea too lofty to hold onto.
|
All these nights awake spent staring at these walls.
|
All these feelings I¡¯ve tried so hard to quell.
|
I hold my breath and try to force it away.
|
Clenching my fists, gritting my teeth.
|
|
Waiting for the new day to come and dispel these clouds away.
|
A sky of dim prospect, to grim to behold.
|
I¡¯ll bow my head and plow forward.
|
|
Carve my heart out from my ribs.
|
Trap it in a box and throw away the key.
|
If I told you where I hid it.
|
You¡¯d only use it to destroy me.
|
My nerves long dead, turned to dust from lack of use.
|
|
I¡¯ve forgot what it¡¯s like to bask in hopes warm light.
|
|
Still my heart, cease the beating quickened by.
|
Your passing grace.
|
Better to fix my gaze ahead and forget, forget everything.
