Pull me closer to the sun Until the armor melts away Into your twilight Now I know just what it's like To see the world through your eyes And how fast you use it up
All that human clay keeps reaching for your frame Until it fills All the cracks inside you I can't understand it when you say
Their colors are so bright And then they dim and you're on the ground
And when your consciousness comes back Spitting up and calling out There will be no shadows Over you
And you'll scream:
What have I done; With my life Give it all back; It's over Won't be enough; To save me What a tragedy!
And I will give it all up Give it all up; So you could Give me a chance; To hold you Won't be enough; Won't be enough to save me What a tragedy!
Now you're up and running from yourself As the streetlights flash ahead But they will lead you nowhere Feel the skin starting to burn away As your internals beg to stay But you speed up anyway
All the strings you're tied to Are pulling so much harder than before But you can't cut through them Even if you broke free The shock would tear you apart But you're way past caring now
Glowing frozen in that light All your features so laid out There'll be no shadows over you As the twilight fades to black
