The glass is cold against my hand Watching the city turn to grey I try to find where I still stand But all the edges fray The silence speaks in heavy tones A weight I cannot lift alone The colors bleed, the picture fades Into the shadows I have made I reach out for the spark But fumble in the dark... So let the water wash it down Until the surface is perfectly still I’m tired of trying not to drown Against the bending of my will It slips away, it falls apart This hollow painting in my heart Another hour, another day The static humming in my mind I push the memory away To leave the emptiness behind Is this surrender or release? To finally find a moment's peace? So let the water wash it down Until the surface is perfectly still I’m tired of trying not to drown Against the bending of my will It slips away, it falls apart This hollow painting in my heart I can’t hold on To what is gone The current pulls me under! I break the frame... I scream your name... So let the water wash it down Until the surface is perfectly still I’m tired of trying not to drown Against the bending of my will It slips away, it falls apart This hollow painting in my heart It falls apart... Just let it fade.
