Your life stepped lightly out our hands |
|
When no one's looking out you understand |
|
Your world was a wheel but the cog ceased to turn |
|
The bottom fell out and our fingers got burned |
|
And there's a cold, cold highway that the wind whistles down |
|
Where the corners turn blind like the graveyard ground |
|
Oh your black icy snare once cut down my friend |
|
In the deepest dark winter when the world seemed to end |
|
Every new version of the way of life |
|
Leaves you reckless and searching for stars in the night |
|
But whose kid are you when they finally decide |
|
The lifestyle you led and the way that you died |
|
But they're oh so simple, they're still trying to tell |
|
The difference for you between heaven and hell |
|
To glorify something, your legends are found |
|
But all they bought you was a hole in the ground |
|
Years rolling by just like a dream |
|
I'm partly human and I'm partly machine |
|
They've lost you and fate put your name on a stone |
|
Perhaps now my friend they might leave you alone |
