lyrics

When was it you realised your mistake?
Thinking isolation meant escape
Left looking for someone else to blame
Roll the dice once more

Just a veil over your eyes
Just another cheap disguise
Till you don’t recognise
What you think you want

I carried desire and it brought me here
Left alone with my thoughts and all my fears
And the broken wisdom that the years
Will just keep on and on

Now cover your windows and shut off the lights
It’s time for us to descend into night
As memories wash over your tired eyes
Just let them close again

And follow the path you find laid out
Tread softly as it carries you down
And try to remember how you felt
When you thought all this was yours

I looked for an answer to the lies
I’m so tired of these dreams
How they persist in the light
I don’t have enough left now to fight
Just let me sleep tonight
Too many colours in my head
Just let me sleep tonight

And the walls come away
And the light disappears
And my heart comes apart
And gives up all my fears
And the night opens up
With its longing embrace
I’m so tired of these dreams
I’m so tired of these dreams
