Into darkness we retreated to seek defense With patience and logic new hope extends To be different, to be lucky, and to die happy
So I go down, down the stair-air-case and out, out the front door There is no time left to waste, a lifetime spent being choked
When I'm at school it's like I'm dead Then the weekend comes and I resurrect These old fears, these old dreams They follow, they're chasing me
To wipe the cobwebs off my tongue And try to speak those ancient words again It's patience and logic that killed true love Make it easy, stop believing that you can trust someone
Go find yourself a dry place where the storm can't touch you any more Lay down and let time-ime waste, a lifetime is being choked
Cause there's no place left to feel at home The years have past and I'm alone With these same fears, these dead dreams They strangle, they're killing me Me
