Wine leans towards an empty glass
As I scatter faith across the floor
I refused to believe what was going on
Couldn’t see the graffiti on the wall
When I opened my eyes, I wasn’t awake
I’d lost all sensitivity
We’d grown so hardened to each other
‘Til you put us out of our misery
Put us out of our misery
Chorus—We were living without breathing
Eating without the taste
We were sleeping but not dreaming
And that is such a waste
Such a waste
Lost inside each other's arms
We'd lost all sense of gravity
Lost for words and unable to say
That is yours, but this belongs to me
So when it came time to separate
And unravel each and every thread
Stitch by stitch we realised
We'd become just like the walking dead
Just like the walking dead
We were...
Chorus -
Driving up to my mother's house
Along metal roads with wooden fences
A kingfisher sits high on his sticks as he watches the dust settle back down
Trees shivering naked
I left the city to its own life
Shed my skin and begin to let you fly
Free from my mind
Standing outside the apartment
Finally able to cope
A glass lies at my feet
Half full of fear, half full of hope
You will always be so dear to me
And I will hold you close in my heart
So many possibilities now we're broken
Broken open for a brand new start
No longer...
