( Look, I know you're afraid.
  That's the whole point.
  can't you see that? )

Twisted nights in the whispers of June
I would stray alone in the streetlights
as the landscape slept in dew
and the smells of life would unfurl

As the rock by my feet turns to water
and I'm out on the surface again
I can feel you're no longer present
and the glow in your eyes must have drained

(Chorus:)

|:  I'm feeding my fire
    with the pieces I used to admire
    You might be able to tell
    since I think you might know me too well  :|

How amazed I was of your efforts
while myself I constantly asked
just how could you possibly do that
and find a purpose therein

And when I look at you now
there really is nothing but silence
that old void that live in us all
at the bottom of what we are

(Chorus)

( Stop being a little baby and get up
  LIFE is PAIN!
  GET USED TO IT!
  You will not fall again.
  Am I understood?
  Am I understood? )
