Lyrics
I could hardly go so far
to believe my tired eyes.
Whispers like a snaking shadow
shut the sunlight from my weary mind.
I've spent long days chasing bad dreams away -
they fall like night, like surging tides,
filling up my world
and I can't hide.
Run now, run now, run now;
go now, go now, go now -
leave now!
Words stretch, and pull me from the edge.
My blood lights in self-defence.
Desire never ends:
a forest fire thirsting after death.
Untamed and wild it runs,
a beast untied beneath a smothered sun.
