Weight & Carriage

Now I have scratched beneath the surface and I really must confess
If you're not with me in my dreams, then I'll never sleep again
I will never sleep again

Lover, she had eyes like no other
But now she looks straight through me as her gaze it meets anothers
Brother, am I now just like the others?
Cast out to the cold with no embrace from another

Well, what if we were to burn, would we burn together?
And would it really change a thing?
Cause you set yourself alight and we both went down in flames
Now it feels like I am losing all control
She said "there's the door if this is getting too much for you"
But we both knew I couldn't leave if I wanted to

The lights outside they shined so bright
But you've doused the flame in me and they've all but died
And now I can see the forest for the trees
Tell me how I am supposed to believe in myself, when you don't believe in me

Oh, I'm an emotional wreck
She sold my soul to the devil and then discarded the rest
She sang a sirens song for absolution
Swear it always plays out to the same conclusion

Left alone, left alone again
Cause time with her is never time well spent
She still meant everything to me
But without her here I think I'll find my peace

I'm finally at peace, I'm finally at peace
I finally found release

Well, what if we were to burn, would we burn together?
And would it really change a thing?
Cause you set yourself alight and we both went down in flames
Now it feels like I am losing all control
She said "there's the door if this is getting too much for you"
But we both knew I couldn't leave if I wanted to

Now you have faded from my thoughts I can finally sleep again
