lyrics
I am sore, so I’ll sleep now
Turn the lights and the sheets down
The weight and the pain, they start fading
From my body and brain, they've been aching
And wasting away
Feed the fuse to the fire
Past the architects, they're all smiling
And the hole in the atmosphere's open
The heavy holds on my feet, they've been broken
I'm as high as I've been
I will heal, I will sleep, I will die
I'm done fighting for you
I will heal, I will rise in the night
I'll be seeing you soon
Away. away.
Away. away.
Close my eyes
Freeze the weather vanes
FreeZe the weather vanes
I forget your face
I don't know why
But when I'm here, I don't mind
No one to come and find me
So close to paradise
