Lay back and stare
Into my hollow eyes
Distracted by the future
How you left me stupefied
And that old town clock's chiming
The hours as they play
Games with my revelation
That is wasting me away
Agape at the wonder
Blind on my knees
Stupid for wanting
Fearful to be free
No I don't want
Love to belay
But arrest the provocation
Before what's left is blown away
Yet some pride in these withering bones
Fortitude when you cry
If I'm alone forever
I'll be the reason why
And I won't feel sorry for myself
I won't have the time
You and me was everything
But everything ain't all right
Into my hollow eyes
Distracted by the future
How you left me stupefied
And that old town clock's chiming
The hours as they play
Games with my revelation
That is wasting me away
Agape at the wonder
Blind on my knees
Stupid for wanting
Fearful to be free
No I don't want
Love to belay
But arrest the provocation
Before what's left is blown away
Yet some pride in these withering bones
Fortitude when you cry
If I'm alone forever
I'll be the reason why
And I won't feel sorry for myself
I won't have the time
You and me was everything
But everything ain't all right
