Floater - The Knowing Dirge lyrics

rate me

In the shadow of what's real<br />

You dig a hole down in the sand.<br />

Where you know you left it all,<br />

The things that make you understand.<br />

And guide your hand.<br />

Then you turn with wattering eye,<br />

To the sky in your surprise.<br />

And the sand is your blood and the hole is so big<br />

And you shake and you pray and you beg.<br />

You know why.<br />

With your watering eye,<br />

You've got a hole inside,<br />

Such a wretched life,<br />

Don't look so surprised.<br />

You know why.<br />

You did this to yourself again.<br />

Gunning for a bluer sky.<br />

Swallowed the dose,<br />

Cut your own rope,<br />

Just to know it all.<br />

Do you know it all?<br />

Took down the dose,<br />

Cut your rope,<br />

Wanted to show yourself everything.<br />

You ran through the wires,<br />

Tasted the fires.<br />

You can't feel anything at all.<br />

Shocked by the voice again.
