I can force you to smile, but it don't reach your eyes Like the moon in the day, silently fades That which formerly shined is obliterated
I'm striving to coax or wrench you - I can't even reach you You're starving for something - I've got nothing to feed you And renegade good intentions turn to scorn All the clouds keep hoarding All their airborne oceans won't fall
There's a creature of prey In the darkness it waits And it's fixing it eyes Smouldering eyes, with a purpose of mind On the line that it traces
I'm striving to coax or wrench you - I can't even reach you You're starving for something - I've got nothing to feed you And renegade good intentions turn to scorn All the clouds keep hoarding All their airborne oceans won't fall
