Lyrics
0:13Close my eyes and drift into the silence
0:17Barely see the ultraviolet
0:20Slipped and fell into the deep end
0:25Oh the sidewalks shimmer just like diamonds
0:29All the empty words were flying
0:31Well the heart was low but I never was alone
0:36I never was alone
0:38I've been running for so long
0:41All that's left is skin and bones
0:45Close my eyes fight to carry on
0:49Sometimes it makes no sense at all
0:52If I stumble will I fall
0:55If I fall I'll tuck and roll
0:59Close my eyes and let the love light guide me home
1:03Let the love light guide me home
1:05Once the days evolve into another
1:09I'm not getting any further
1:12Left you feeling like a maniac
1:17All the shining sidewalks they were lying
1:21Lost myself while I was high and
1:24The heart was low but I never was alone
1:28I never was alone
1:31I've been running for so long
1:34All that's left is skin and bones
1:38Close my eyes fight to carry on
1:41Sometimes it makes no sense at all
1:44If I stumble will I fall
1:47If I fall I'll tuck and roll
1:51Close my eyes and let the love light guide me home
1:55Let the love light guide me home
2:09Hearts are empty almost all the time
2:15Blind devising ways to lead the line
2:21And it seems as if there's no end in sight
2:28I don't wanna be there when it all goes down
2:34But if I gotta be there don't let me hit the ground
2:37Can I hit the ground
2:40I've been running for so long
2:43All that's left is skin and bones
2:47Close my eyes fight to carry on
2:50Sometimes it makes no sense at all
2:53If I stumble will I fall
2:56If I fall I'll tuck and roll
3:00Close my eyes and let the love light guide me home
3:04Let the love light guide me home
3:07Let the love light guide me home
Close my eyes and drift into the silence Barely see the ultraviolet Slipped and fell into the deep end Oh the sidewalks shimmer just like diamonds All the empty words were flying Well the heart was low but I never was alone I never was alone I've been running for so long All that's left is skin and bones Close my eyes fight to carry on Sometimes it makes no sense at all If I stumble will I fall If I fall I'll tuck and roll Close my eyes and let the love light guide me home Let the love light guide me home Once the days evolve into another I'm not getting any further Left you feeling like a maniac All the shining sidewalks they were lying Lost myself while I was high and The heart was low but I never was alone I never was alone I've been running for so long All that's left is skin and bones Close my eyes fight to carry on Sometimes it makes no sense at all If I stumble will I fall If I fall I'll tuck and roll Close my eyes and let the love light guide me home Let the love light guide me home Hearts are empty almost all the time Blind devising ways to lead the line And it seems as if there's no end in sight I don't wanna be there when it all goes down But if I gotta be there don't let me hit the ground Can I hit the ground I've been running for so long All that's left is skin and bones Close my eyes fight to carry on Sometimes it makes no sense at all If I stumble will I fall If I fall I'll tuck and roll Close my eyes and let the love light guide me home Let the love light guide me home Let the love light guide me home
