Floating through the walls is the wicked fire that burns your soul
Calmly find I’m slowly deflating
Never really thought much about it
before it even hit me, I’m running, I can’t hide
And it usually turns to something sinister
Creeps up behind me now he’s all over her
Nothing in the world can drown out the whispering
Of animals dying when the flames are closing in.
When we were tall, you said, I wouldn’t fall.
You said you promised, but nothing.
Falling into your skin, I must confess that I lost myself
You got a light but I can only see the sad smears in the dying sky
Found it in myself to be who you wanted me to be
I tried to put myself in your shoes but I tripped and fell into your hollow eyes
The dreamer was a fool
And you got the things you wanted,
I'm laughing with a knife in my skull
And it usually turns to something sinister
Creeps up behind me now he’s all over her
Nothing in the world can drown out the whispering
Of animals dying when the flames are closing in, when we were tall, you said, I wouldn’t fall.
You said you promised, but nothing (rang a bell to me)
And it usually turns to something sinister
Creeps up behind me now he’s all over her
Nothing in the world can drown out the whispering
Of animals dying when the flames are closing in, when we were tall, you said, I wouldn’t fall.
You said you promised, but nothing.
All i had, was what you threw away.
All i did was left to be betrayed.
Though I’d like to give more than I take
I’d like to quit this deadly game we play
And it usually turns to something sinister
Creeps up behind me now he’s all over her
Nothing in the world can drown out the whispering
Of animals dying when the flames are closing in, when we were tall, you said, I wouldn’t fall.
