Keep these words, so absurd
In your mind to be observed
Come apart from the dark
Find some light left in your heart
On the brink, prone to drink
Fading faster than you think
Let it go before you know
You can't discern your friends and foes
Count these lives remaining
Raise your head as it sinks in
I don't know where we're going
I've learnt to take it on the chin
These months of hibernating
The more you say, the less you win
It's still a mystery right now
But now it lies beneath your skin
Where were you my dear?
Somewhere far away from here
Well you can save your bitter tears
Because I've found some better fears
I sure as hell won't waste these years on where we've been
Settle in, count your sins
Show your scars and then begin
Life conceals what isn't real
So don't ignore what it reveals
Count these lives remaining
Raise your head as it sinks in
I don't know where we're going
I've learnt to take it on the chin
These months of hibernating
The more you say, the less you win
It's still a mystery right now
But now it lies beneath your skin
Now it lies beneath your skin
Now it lies beneath your skin
