The Needle Lies Again (P. Kennison) A dark summer day where you'd hide In a simple like melody You'd stop the world 'til the hurt went away And all you know had set the stage It lingers on. The end. The rage You let the demons in It never stops Left you with hell to pay You said leave me alone 'cause I gotta breathe It's hard enough to find the will to live through the pain When this soul is fading I don't know how you got so far Wish you had remembered who you are And let me in The needle lied again my friend The sun rose today. A goodbye But maybe time knows a way I cannot sleep I can't stay awake Heal this heart Here I stay Down here I know no one to shelter me Or where to begin It's so hard to start or change again Or fit in Leave me alone I gotta breathe It's hard enough to find the will to live through the pain And my soul is fading I don't know how I got so far I don't know just who we are Or how to win The needle lies again Leave me alone I gotta breathe It's hard enough to find the will to live through the pain And my soul is fading I don't know how I got so far I don't know anymore my friend A dark summer day where you'd hide
