lyrics

Shape myself out to be, something in-between a liar and the truth
So stay far enough away, just keep me in your view. The sound is better back there anyway.

And when the dead call, don't pick up. It's best the less we know
And if it seem real, your finally looking close enough. No amount of time will heal.

Games that you loved to play, you cheated without shame. Well I just squint my eyes.
I'll trace the surest safest way that leads you to the gate, but I'm staying behind.

And when the day comes don't blame luck. It's best the less we know
And if it looks clear, then we've finally given up and you can willingly let go.

Once I thought there was time enough to figure out the constants that I need, but now that time is gone. It's like a sharpened blade hiding in a scabbard, a sheath that's finally ready to show its sheen, but it just sways and taunts.

And when the dead call don't pick up, it's best the less we know
And if it looks real your finally looking close enough, that no amount of time will heal.

Hey, if you don't want to stay, I'm not keeping you here...
