Splinter - No.1 Illness lyrics

rate me

You're Burning like a light,<br />

That's dieing in the rain,<br />

And you're fading far from view.<br />

You cannot see that far,<br />

You cannot know the way,<br />

Or see what I'm doing to you.<br />

Cuts into my skin,<br />

I can't live my life in this lie<br />

Im drowning in.<br />

Naming all the wrongs<br />

And forgetting all the rights,<br />

And placing blames on me<br />

And maybe I just thought<br />

We'd never reach that height,<br />

Or what it could never be.<br />

You come before me now,<br />

You're asking for me<br />

To make sense of this somehow.<br />

But I, I can't make what's wrong seem right<br />

& I can't raise my hands to the sky,<br />

And dream of what could be tomorrow.<br />

If you could take enough of me,<br />

And see what I could do to you.<br />

The beating of it all,<br />

Gets me thru.<br />

So cry out to the moon,<br />

Or wish upon a star,<br />

And see if that get's you far<br />

Then strike it hard and cruel,<br />

Cos it cannot help you now<br />

Like water in waves,<br />

Stop crying to me this way<br />

Cause I, I can't make what's wrong seem right<br />

& I can't raise my hands to the sky,<br />

And dream of what could be tomorrow.<br />

So don't tell me now,<br />

You think what I would say,<br />

Or do<br />

Or if I've had enough of you...<br />

Feel sicker this tme? You will<br />

Sit tight cos I'm coming in for the kill<br />

It cuts you but you won't know when<br />

It's just the begining of the number one illness.
