Its a fleeting, washed out memory,
dancing toe-to-toe with deja vu.
You sense it drifting out endlessly,
paranoia has its eyes on you.
You sketch an image of your life,
knowing nothing’s ever black or white.
this reckless reckoning won’t fade away,
there’s only so much that can ever change.
Don’t forget that I’m treading on thin ice.
But when it’s just you and I,
I’m free and so is my mind.
So if I fall, where will you be?
And if I call, will you hear me?
Often times my feelings take me by surprise.
Could it be my demons are running out of alibis?
Maybe I see angels, greeting me in disguise.
Lately I think danger is keeping me... alive.
It’s a lonely calm before a storm,
whispering a prayer in your ears.
A moment’s notice, chance to be reborn,
yet everything remains unclear.
Yeah everything remains unclear.
Yeah everything remains in fear.
Even when these lights are fading,
echoes stirring inside my cell,
and before I crawl into sedation,
at least I know this rapture isn’t Hell.
Don’t forget that I’m treading on thin ice.
But when it’s just you and I,
I’m free and so is my mind.
So if I fall, where will you be?
And if I call, will you hear me?
