lyrics

Can't shake the feeling
That no one's watching
No grand design
Just the lines we're drawing
No one is shocked
Cause nothing's shocking
We stare into the abyss

I threw myself into the looking glass
A million pieces of the past slipped through my hands
The sands are shifting
It all moves so fast
I had my back to the waves
I wasn't ready for it

I twist
I burn
I shake
I forget my own shape
I bend
I sway
I break
But I can taste it

I feel it in my bones

Still further from the flame
I'm taken by the waves
I shift
I blur
I fade
But I can taste it

I feel it in my bones

Some times it feels like
Tight rope walking
Nothing below
So we just keep on falling
The wrong side of a velvet rope
Always making sure I don't get too close

I threw myself into the looking glass
A million pieces of the past slipped through my hands
The sands are shifting
It all moves so fast
I had my back to the waves
I wasn't ready for it

I wanted something
And I wanted it pure
No cloak and dagger
No two way mirrors
I see it in the distance
Glistening and clear
I try to touch it and it disappears
I had my back to the waves

I twist
I burn
I shake
I forget my own shape
I bend
I sway
I break
But I can taste it

I feel it in my bones

Still further from the flame
I'm taken by the waves
I shift
I blur
I fade
But I can taste it

I feel it in my bones
