No Blood No Foul

Into the fray we can't jump to conclusions 
For we are not what it seems like 
Give me your hand, give me your hand 

I came to you 
you promised me 
that you were on just a temporary phase 
sheets in the wind 
no harm at all 
No blood, no foul 

But now you're hurt 
Your pain is deep 
And it's just killing me to see 
Tonight I'd do anything to untie you 
from this locomotive 

If falling faster helps 
I'll sink into oblivion 
I'll sink so fast your head will spin 

You hold the vapor in your hands 
To disregard the scent that pulls you out 
This fleeting glimpse is all you have 
Please don't blink twice 
It will disappear before your eyes 

I saw the look in your eyes 
Screaming out for mercy 
Sidestepping series of disappearing waves 
Of disappointment 
All the things that hold you back 
Please tell me why you won't let me in 
You're slitting your own neck 
And I can't stop you from trying 

If falling faster helps 
I'll sink into oblivion 
I'll sink so fast your head will spin 

You hold the vapor in your hands 
To disregard the scent that pulls you out 
This fleeting glimpse is all you have 
Please don't blink twice 
It will disappear before your eyes 

Your heart is beating faster now 
With abrasive syllables, you stumble for a shaky word 
My heart is bursting for the time 
When sleep won't come 
Until safety rings in my ears 
But I'll never be able to sleep 
I'll never be able to sleep again 
But I'll never be able to sleep 
I'll never be able to sleep again 

Thanks for coming, thanks for coming 
He said as he walked up to the steps 
With our heads held low 
Aware of our cracked faces in the sun 
We had been running for so long 
We had been running 
That our shoes were as paper 
as we struggled on these blistered feet 

His words are as a gentle breeze 
We had been sweating 
grief stricken tears we had been crying 
But it was finished all along 

Now we can hold our hears up high 
And say that it was worth the climb 
The struggle for our very soul 
The struggle was not ours at all
