lyrics

It’s getting harder To reach outside the box, yeah
We both know
Time has stopped
But who’s to say it won’t come back again.

And my veiny hands are getting cold
Waiting for you to come home
I believe I’ve not grown enough
To see the back of your head.

Too many tears,
Too many ways I’ve cried
Too many fears,
Too many faces die along the way.
A constant neglect for real life
Will be my remedy for decay.

And I let things stray, stray then come back
Remaining intact, a stitch in my back
Has crawled all the way up to the surface of my skin
Reminding me that I’m just constantly resurfacing.

Give me, give me, give me
Something to wipe the dust away
Something to hide behind
The lines that I don’t want to say.

Give me, give me, give me, give me
A piece of you that I can keep
The fear and fright that I have seen
Tonight we’ll cry and then we’ll dream.

It’s getting harder and you know it’s never gonna stop
Comatosed and left on the spot, a thought
A hopeless reminder of me trying to function
Living beside you remembering.
The years we lost, the fears the cost of hoping
It nearly got to us, I’m still choking
On the rusted bones of love
A soulless sight that’s gone but might be destined for above.

Give me, give me, give me
Something to wipe the dust away
Something to hide behind
The lines that I don’t want to say.

Give me, give me, give me, give me
A piece of you that I can keep
The fear and fright that I have seen
Tonight we’ll cry and then we’ll dream.
Then we’ll dream.

Everyday you’ll find us dreaming
In auburn skies. (repeats)
