[Intro: Shawn Milke]
I'm having trouble breathing
And if I don't think fast I'm likely to find myself here for good
Panic sets in as I start to question
Why I see you standing there behind the gla**...
[Verse 1: Dennis Lee & Shawn Milke]
Who said that we never would touch the speed of light?
So far behind me, understanding
Stars become rivers flowing backwards, oh yeah!
When did my heartbeat start to echo?
Why are my thoughts now;
Fading, drifting, yeah, twisting, yeah, tearing, yeah, bleeding? Yeah!
[Pre-Chorus: Shawn & Melissa Milke]
Excuse me, are you a maniac? (Oooh)
I am and I'm okay with that
Yea-ah-ah
[Chorus: Shawn Milke, Melissa Milke & Dennis Lee]
One last night, one final kiss
Desire begging me not to go
Goodbye my everything
I'm terrified, I pull you near
Making sure that you are real
Open my eyes, it was all a dream
Goodbye my everything
[Verse 2: Dennis Lee & Shawn Milke]
An endless maze, a mobiüs labyrinth
Redemption, exodus, where have you gone!
And yet your gaze will not cease to burn into me!
So far removed, so mockingly you observe
Pariah, hypocrite! I will be free!
And yet you will remain
[Pre-Chorus: Shawn & Melissa Milke]
Excuse me, are you a maniac? (Oooh)
I am and I'm okay with that
Yea-ah-ah
[Chorus: Shawn Milke, Melissa Milke & Dennis Lee]
One last night, one final kiss
Desire begging me not to go
Goodbye my everything
I'm terrified, I pull you near
Making sure that you are real
Open my eyes, it was all a dream
Goodbye my everything
[Refrain 1: Melissa Milke]
Goodbye my everything
[Bridge: Dennis Lee, Shane Crump & Shawn Milke]
No!
Futile screams go unheard
Incarcerated by so many walls
No!
Imprisoned and banished within a nexus of my own design
[Refrain 2: Shawn Milke]
(Please! God! k**! Me!)
Don't go back, don't leave me
Hide from the world, let's not exist
[Bridge 2: Shawn Milke]
Time is mocking me and now I'm fighting gravity, yeah
I'm destroying me, colliding worlds will set you free
(Please! God! k**! Me!)
Time is mocking me and now I'm fighting gravity, yeah
[Bridge 3: Shawn Milke]
A straight line is not the shortest distance between two points!
I know that now! But I'm afraid it might be too late!
I'm afraid it might be too late!
I'm afraid it might be too late!
[Bridge 4: Dennis Lee, Shawn & Melissa Milke]
Will we come back from this?
Hold my hand, I'm blind!
Will we come back from this?
Show me how, I'm lost!
My God it's beautiful
Will we come back from this?
The portal opens, time is slowing
No turning back now, ‘Bel!
[Pre-Chorus 2: Shawn & Melissa Milke]
Yea-ah-ah
[Chorus: Shawn Milke, Melissa Milke & Dennis Lee]
One last night, one final kiss
Desire begging me not to go
Goodbye my everything
I'm terrified, I pull you near
Making sure that you are real
Open my eyes, it was all a dream
Goodbye my everything
[Refrain 1: Melissa Milke]
Goodbye my everything
[Outro: Dennis Lee, Shane Crump & Shawn Milke]
No!
Futile screams go unheard
Incarcerated by so many walls
No!
Imprisoned and banished within a nexus of my own design
