lyrics

As I watch you turn the light off
Sleep in silence, I know it well
Waiting for a chance to move past
Memories like a prison cell

So now I stand here playing victim
Depression’s grip cold, soft and spare
What is heaven if god dies slowly?
What is hell if no one cares?

Maybe I could stay here
when you come down from a black cloud
Maybe you could stay here
when I come down from a black cloud
You, ascending to a place that I’d never go to willingly
Always floating on a different stream

I wait patient, this slow descending
Clipping wings as a pass time
Hospital gowns like paper sails
Evanescent shell I’ve contrived

Shining through this husk a message
Palm from pocket, a future light
“Stay here baby, I can hold you
Love you dearly, don’t fear the night”

And maybe I could stay here
when you come down from a black cloud
Maybe you could stay here
when I come down from a black cloud
You, ascending to a place that I’d never go to willingly
Always floating on a different dream
