On top of a mountain of words Of faith and hope, consolation and pretty truths There I stand and wait for the dawn That hasn't come for a year and a day or two Always the same when I come back Falling into that warm, black haze Maybe like you there I'll fade one day There in your room I die every day And even the sunlight is afraid to stay When I'm begging fate for just one sign To bring peace back and let me close my eyes Why was it you? Why hadn't I Vanish like fog in the morning light I scream by day, I call out by night Why not I? Your room is still waiting, unchanged All the same, though the posters have all been washed off by rain I'm running through the cold city veins again Hoping to see your face Always the same when I come back Falling into that warm, black haze Maybe like you there I'll fade one day
Some noise above is rocking the dark The walls used to keep all sound away They're pounding on the bottom of hell There in your room I die every day And even the sunlight is afraid to stay When I'm begging fate for just one sign To bring peace back and let me close my eyes Why was it you? Why hadn't I Vanish like fog in the morning light I scream by day, I call out by night Why not I? When I'm begging fate for just one sign To bring peace back and let me close my eyes I scream by day, I call out by night Why not I? When visions return, always the same I fall into that warm, black haze Maybe like you there I'll fade one day Some noise above is rocking the dark The walls used to keep all sound away They're pounding on the bottom of hell You can't see me, you can't hear me...
