lyrics

Passing through the sleepless years in waves of frozen air
Succumbing to delirium, reach for what isn’t there
Cages keeping company for creatures on the floor
Exhausted strength, all to prepare to break through an open door

Voices travel into the cold
Passing over the sea
Falling into another world
The lonely stories need to be told

A full length mirror’s image of the frailty of bones
No longer safe to elements, like slowly sinking stones
Gasping for what little breath the numbing force will steal
A wrinkle found in skin before its time will never heal

Voices echo inside their heads
Swallowed up by the sea
Falling off of the deepest end
The lonely stories need to be said

Watching the images come floating up to the surface
Letting all feelings go to think that this is possible
Keeping all promises and picking up all the pieces
Letting emotions flow to see something so beautiful

Voices travel into the cold
Passing over the sea
Falling into another world
So lonely

Watching the images come floating up to the surface
Letting all feelings go to think that this is possible
Salvaging promises and picking up all the pieces
Letting emotions to see something so beautiful
