[intro]
Why can’t it ever last a day
Why can’t you just be here
Poking around corners our love will appear
Your emotions and appearance are suave
Scars on that porcelain skin is a shame
You turn away, going where you came
No matter what I do it’s always the same
You lead with so much grace
I shatter in your hands like a million little blades
[electric piano solo]
[verse1]
You hijack my dreams, every other thought scrubbed clean
Tightening down my seams
The color never changes, just fades
Continuing on one leg, hopping to the finish
Hoping for a crutch, yea you got me stuck
You leave crumbs showing your appetite
Raining your phosphorus pouring your thermite
burning my dreams, you satanic sandman
Grabbing all you can with your scaly hands
All demands and no solutions
I’m tired of your movement
Burning across the sky like a dark night star comet, leaving me longing
[chorus]
Ooh
Why are you so far away
Let me close just one more time today
Buried so deep in your maze, refusing to stay
One minute your there then gone, Is here so wrong
Just a blurry white mist, your fixation
Loving you is like loving an apparition
[light intense piano solo]
[verse2]
Ooh
Your a creature, low ground and stalking
Hunting after dawn
Leaving me everywhere but calm
So far from close enough, saying your done
Loving like a ghost, waking in the night soaked
Nightmares in the dark
Swimming in your ocean filled with sharks
Drawing my blood for your tests
Wrapped so tight letting go of your crystal heart
Falling below of no return leaving your nest
Killing over your dark ritual love fest
because why oh why do I need you to love me
You could leave me dealing in that breeze
In your cold house the lord of the flies
Just waiting to die
Just waiting for your ride
[chorus]
Ooh
Why are you so far away
Let me close just one more time today
Buried so deep in your maze, refusing to stay
One minute your there then gone, Is here so wrong
Just a blurry white mist, your fixation
Loving you is like loving an apparition
[bridge]
From below the sea to the mountain tops
Your forest in between, forever lost
From below the sea to the mountain tops
Your forest in between, forever lost
[whisper]
I’m so lost
I’m so
[SCREAM]
LOST
[guitar/violin solo]
[outro]
You got me in your head
Murky deep dark on the cusp of dust
Rust love black doves
Rubble underneath trapped outside
Lost in the sticks, laying me punches and kicks
All these licks, I wish I could hit skip
Misery, pain, and regret no time to vent
Knowing you, you won’t relent, oh what a mess
Just
Put me down
In that cold ground
I want to feel something profound
It’s to quiet turn it up loud
Get my head out of this cloud
Going at my heart again another round
I know I can’t count on you
In a hole with your tears of memories of abuse
Tightening me down not letting loose
Ooh… please let go I wanna fall too
[slow sad piano solo]
Ooooh
Your Just an apparition
Just an apparition
