Draw the shades to close my eyes
|
(I never want to see again)
|
I found the cost of courage high
|
(Sometimes hard to pay)
|
I hear the song the sirens sing
|
(Calling on the shore for me)
|
So sell your soul and try to fly
|
(The teather still remains)
|
And all the finer things they laid apon my table
|
Smiled as their hooks were slowly sinking in
|
|
Another pill I'm to consume
|
(To make me learn to feel again)
|
Followed by another one
|
(To make me loose the same)
|
God if I could recognize
|
(The things to make me whole again)
|
And draw this air into my lungs
|
(Remember how to breathe)
|
|
For as the curtain rose I danced as I was able
|
Felt my deception slowly sinking in
|
|
So I turn to you my love
|
(For the solace that is there)
|
And offer any cherished thing
|
(For a slight reprieve)
|
I hoped that you might find me here
|
(And I could learn to smile again)
|
As a balm for these wounds
|
(Take away the sting)
|
|
And as the band did play your body I did cradle
|
I should have known that song would have to end
|
