Lyrics
It’s quiet now
the moments stretch together as I try to find my footing
but that lurking voice
calculating consequence and separating silence from the truth
The words appear
everytime I close my eyes those tiny glowing lines are there
and I try to slow
the accelerating heartbeats that rattle in my ears
But it’s over now
I’m fighting lines of light that I don’t want to follow
and it’s over now
the precipice approaches
and I’m gonna fall
It’s strange to find
how now can feel forever when I’m stuck here in this desert
and I can’t let go
I’m terrified of losing touch and I’m getting nowhere
So it’s over now
I’m fighting lines of light that I don’t want to follow
and it’s over now
the precipice approaches
and I’m gonna fall
Deep breaths, hit the brakes
but it’s too late
all that’s left is to buckle up and brace for impact
And it’s over now
I’m fighting lines of light that I don’t want to follow
and it’s over now
the precipice approaches
and I’m gonna fall
