Vale of Tears

Do you see the world in color
When you look me in the eye?
Do you lose yourself in starry nights
As you look up to the sky?

Do you see with blurry vision
When your gaze pierces my face?
Do you dress yourself in shining white
Just to put me in my place?

I scream, afflicted with a curse
I don't know what is worse
To let go or to immerse myself in you

And as the avalanche releases
I'm in the valley looking up
And as the avalanche releases
I'm in the valley looking up

And as I stand below the masses
Threatening to crush me to the ground
Im looking through my broken glasses
And see all of the weight
That's coming down

It's written on a wall that I walked past
It's written in the sky that's overcast
I looked at all the signs and never
Cared enough to read

And now I'm lying in the vale of tears
Crushed by all the weight of all my fears
You wrote between the lines and that's why
I deserve to bleed

Do you feel the way I'm feeling?
Can you see yourself with me?
Do you dream while you're awake sometimes
And lie awake while you should sleep?

Do you also get excited
When you see me in the hall?
And while your heart begins to race like mine
The summer turns to fall

I scream, afflicted with a curse
I don't know what is worse
To let go or to immerse myself in you

And as the avalanche releases
I'm in the valley looking up
And as the avalanche releases
I'm in the valley looking up

And as I stand below the masses
About to crush me to the ground
I'm looking through my broken glasses
And see all the weight
That's coming down

It's written on a wall that I walked past
It's written in the sky that's overcast
I looked at all the signs and never
Cared enough to read

And now I'm lying in the vale of tears
Crushed by all the weight of all my fears
You wrote between the lines and that's why
I deserve to bleed

Deserve to bleed
Deserve to bleed
