Twisted Coil
Slide down into the silence, numb the day away
Move closer to a memory, feel it slip away
Life shivers in the distance, whisper it away
Your sun is smiling on my ashes on this perfect day
(Shut down the guilt machine and wash your conscience clean of yesterday)
Drown the ocean, drain the sky
Wash the color from the Sun
Still the thunder, derail the Earth
Burn the stars out one by one
(We come undone)
Breathe deeply of your essence, stir the scars beneath
Sing sweet a song so deathless; you belong to me
Life shivers in the distance; wish it all away
Your Sun is smiling on my ashes on this perfect day
(Shut down the guilt machine and wash your conscience clean of yesterday)
Drown the ocean, drain the sky
Wash the color from the Sun
Still the thunder, derail the Earth
Burn the stars out one by one
(We come undone)
Accusations run astray inside the guilt machine
Turning tension's twisted coil 'til nothing's left of me
Words unspoken feed the lie
Smile and say you're doing fine today
Conversation makes no sense; all logic stripped away
Situation's out of hand, in amber disarray
Words unspoken feed the lie
Another pill... you're doing fine today
Did you dream of distant skies
And thirst to roam and wander?
Did you die silently inside?
Did you think you'd find the answer behind the light?
Did you think you'd find a way
To disconnect your favourite pain?
Disengage and justify to wash away the pain
Medicate and victimize to purge your pure again
Words unspoken feed the lie
Drink it down... you're doing fine today
Something snaps at four-o-five one Friday afternoon
Turning tension's twisted coil 'til nothing's left of you
Words unspoken seal the lie
One small step... you'll soon be fine today
Did you dream of distant skies and thirst to roam and wander?
Did you die silently inside?
Did you think you'd find the answer behind the light?
Did you think you'd find a way to disconnect your favourite pain?
Did you dream of distant skies and thirst to roam and wander?
Did you die silently inside?
Did you think you'd find the answer behind the light?
Did you think you'd find a way to disconnect your favourite pain?
Life shivers in the distance, whisper it away
Your sun is smiling on my ashes on this perfect day
(Shut down the guilt machine and wash your conscience clean of yesterday)
Drown the ocean, drain the sky
Wash the color from the Sun
Still the thunder, derail the Earth
Burn the stars out one by one
Drown the ocean, drain the sky
Wash the color from the Sun
Still the thunder, derail the Earth
Burn the stars out one by one
Move closer to a memory, feel it slip away
Life shivers in the distance, whisper it away
Your sun is smiling on my ashes on this perfect day
(Shut down the guilt machine and wash your conscience clean of yesterday)
Drown the ocean, drain the sky
Wash the color from the Sun
Still the thunder, derail the Earth
Burn the stars out one by one
(We come undone)
Breathe deeply of your essence, stir the scars beneath
Sing sweet a song so deathless; you belong to me
Life shivers in the distance; wish it all away
Your Sun is smiling on my ashes on this perfect day
(Shut down the guilt machine and wash your conscience clean of yesterday)
Drown the ocean, drain the sky
Wash the color from the Sun
Still the thunder, derail the Earth
Burn the stars out one by one

Drown the ocean, drain the sky
Wash the color from the Sun
Still the thunder, derail the Earth
Burn the stars out one by one
