lyrics

VERSE 1
-----------
As the evening purples the sky
You watch from behind the pane
Alone, no one to hear your sighs
At the slipping away of the day

And the shadows that lay ‘cross your face
You turn, but they still remain
Your eyes trace the walls of the room
As if seeking a way to escape


PRE-CHORUS 1
-------------------
Feel your life flow and ebb
Breath to breath
Waiting for something to change


CHORUS
-------------
Confined, you can’t hide
From the lidless stare of your own mind’s eye
Each day, face to face
With the present, with the past, with the future, all gray
Collide, with the sands of time
A moment to a minute to a life gone by
Another day, gone to waste
Watching it fade from the edge of your grave


VERSE 2
-----------
And your evening becomes black and blue
Enfolds you within its embrace
All the shadows become part of you
Every form, smell, touch, sound and taste

Open window, skin chilled by the air
Seeps deep down to rattle your bones
You wonder aloud, “Should I care?”
If home once loved is no longer a home

PRE-CHORUS 2
-------------------
And you stare at the screen
What does it mean
When everything and nothing has changed?


PRE-CHORUS 3
-------------------
Feel your life flow and ebb
Breath to breath
Are you still waiting for change?


CHORUS
-------------
Confined, you can’t hide
From the lidless stare of your own mind’s eye
Each day, face to face
With the present, with the past, with the future, all gray
Collide, with the sands of time
A moment to a minute to a life gone by
Another day, gone to waste
Watching it fade from the edge of your grave

Confined, you can’t hide
From the lidless stare of your own mind’s eye
Each day, face to face
With the present, with the past, with the future, all gray
Collide, with the sands of time
A moment to a minute to a life gone by
Another day, gone to waste
Watching it fade from the edge of your grave
