lyrics

All I have is vague and fleeting
What we lose is real as the night
How are you of such convictions
Are you not just as confused as I

Let me delight amidst the shadows
I can’t live in your republic, see
Paint those roses on my windows tonight
The morning brings us all the truth I need

Cast your fears aside
Leave your doubt behind
When you’re lonely
When you’re sad

I know you’ve it all before
It’s easy to ignore
When you’re lonely
When you’re sad

Remember, it ain’t that bad

My assays at escaping suffering
Have only brought me that much closer to the pain
For you can only fill your cup until it spills
Or sharpen your knife until it’s dull again
