Twisted Coil

Slide down into the silence

Numb the day away

Move closer to a memory

Feel it slip away



Your sun is smiling on my ashes

On this perfect day

(Shut down the guilt machine and wash your conscience clean of yesterday)



Drown the ocean

Drain the sky

Wash the color from the sun

Still the thunder

Derail the Earth

Burn the stars out one by one

... We come undone



Breathe deeply of your essence

Stir the scars beneath

Sing sweet a song so deathless

You belong to me

Life shivers in the distance

Wish it all away



Your sun is smiling on my ashes

On this perfect day

(Shut down the guilt machine and wash your conscience clean of yesterday)



Drown the ocean

Drain the sky

Wash the color from the sun

Still the thunder

Derail the Earth

Burn the stars out one by one

... We come undone



Accusations run astray

Inside the guilt machine

Turning tension's twisted coil

Till nothing's left of me

Words unspoken feed the lie

Smile and say you're doing fine today



Conversation makes no sense

All logic stripped away

Situation's out of hand

In amber disarray

Words unspoken feed the lie

Another pill... you're doing fine today



Did you dream distant skies

And thirst to roam and wander?

Did you die silently inside?

Did you think you'd find the answer

Behind the light?

Did you think you'd find a way

To disconnect your favourite pain?



Disengage and justify

To wash away the pain

Medicate and victimize

To purge you pure again

Words unspoken feed the lie

Drink it down... you're doing fine today



Something snaps at 4.05

One Friday afternoon

Turning tension's twisted coil

Till nothing's left of you

Words unspoken seal the lie

One small step... you'll soon be fine today



Did you dream distant skies

And thirst to roam and wander?

Did you die silently inside?

Did you think you'd find the answer

Behind the light?

Did you think you'd find a way

To disconnect your favourite pain?



Did you dream distant skies

Did you think you'd find the answer

Wish it all away

Your sun is smiling on my ashes

Drown the ocean

Drain the sky

Wash the color from the sun

Still the thunder

Derail the Earth

Burn the stars out one by one



Drown the ocean

Drain the sky

Wash the color from the sun

Still the thunder

Derail the Earth

Burn the stars out one by one
