lyrics

Time is a low if you are walking home
through the size of the shadows of a velvet dawn
Lies are falling through the morning after
did I promise something? maybe get involved

I couldn't drive so much on my own
like going up and going down,
turning years from light to brown
I'm feeling blue, I'm feeling misguided

Swinging the warnings
as I break your spine
the harder I try
is the harder I can

Swapping and bleeding
as I test your luck
the faster I go
is the more... you run

You dance, you dance, but you don't, you don't
believe in the things to come, scream to the shape of ghosts
you go, you go, but so slow, so slow
a dead rabbit in a hurry, pretty Alice in the storm

Where did you learn that look?
as the words became trashed
through some violent mood
Violent faces, and a violent gloom
your stand is deaf
as I fall from the roof

Swinging the warnings
as I break your spine
the harder I try
is the harder I can

Swapping and bleeding
as I test your luck
the faster I go
is the more... you run
