Lyrics

I wondered the sand for years and years upon time Once reformed into glass, with irony I chose to go blind But I made myself promise, if ever in the face of the light They I’d take to the ring; laced up and ready to fight I must be far out of reach from your hands It’s been hard for me at best I wrote you a letter of intent to translate my pain It was written in red, with the ink that flows through my vanes. I licked it and stamped it, but never was it meant for the mail After all, I felt it was just too much truth to unveil (CHORUS) I’ve followed the path that lead to where I’m at; hopeless and eater for more Submerged in this all, I’ve drug you along, tired beaten and sore I’ve been wrong in my ways, but I’ve never lost faith, and you always weighed down on my mind Please consider my thoughts and my fears when it’s time And before you cast me down, drop me a line I’ve worn down the tread on my mind, my heart, and my soul I’ve been drifting on fumes in my travels to where you only know But never a night has fell with the absence of you And never a day has broke without presence of your truth (CHORUS) I’ve broke in these shoes with nothing to lose, for now, but life after life I’ve gambled my time with it all on the line, and broke even night after night But the day it will come when there’s nowhere to run, and no way to talk myself out Please consider my thoughts, my fears, and what I’m about And before you cast me down, hold one last hand out I must be far out of reach from your hands
