lyrics

Eyes like honeycombs
Fates we'll never know
They depend on us
In defense of us
Heard that silly sound
It was frozen underground
But we dug it out
And now I found out

I don't ever want to be
Pulling ever on your strings
I can never fall asleep
With the shoes still on my feet

Eyes are all aglow
The serpent sleeps below
But it frowns on us
And it dawns on us
Slumbering silhouettes
Keeping their regrets
Tightly wrapped
So mind the gap

I don't ever want to see
What was never meant for me
I've been rolling up my sleeves
Trying to catch the falling leaves

I think I'll stick around
Keep this weary carcass upright
For now
See all them sinking down
Cannot save them all, but you can still hold out your hands
For now
Spinning like a carousel
They can't shut you in or shut you out, you're alright
For now
Hope is all I have to keep
Feel my head ache and my hands shake, but my pulse grows louder
For now
