lyrics

waiting for death
waiting for you
waiting for all
I'll be waiting to break you when you fall

we're in denial
we're in a dream
we're in a dance
we'll be dancing when hell is asking

under the spell
under so well
under it now
now we're one with the spell we're under

I'm holding out
I'm holding down
I'm holding on
I've been holding the night at bay for so long

here all along
but I'm gonna fade
nothing is known
but I'm not afraid
to die
It's all I have that's mine
take me down
I see it all the time

I see the end of the line
it's everything I cannot deny
I'm leaving my heart alone by the side
And all of the signs that show me I'm lyin'

All the times that I've known I've fallen
are only everything I'm holding onto
the things that I knew
I'm following you into the abuse

don't believe in the answer I just cannot say
ask but don't look in my eyes

you'll be surprised if you turn to see and then just look away
the truth is that you're gonna die

waiting for death
waiting for you
waiting to see
I'll be waiting to see the ending

You're all alone
You're out in the cold
You're on your own
You're in over your head you know again

It's all around
It's all I found
It's with us now
Now you're starting to know what's holding you

You're holding out
You're holding down
You're holding on
You've been holding the night at bay for so long

known all along
that you're gonna fade
nothing is known
but you're not afraid
to die
It's all that's in your eyes
take us down
We'll see the end of time

I see the end of the line
it's everything I cannot deny
I'm leaving my heart alone by the side
And all of the signs that show me I'm lyin'

All the times that I've known I've fallen
are only everything I'm holding onto
the things that I knew
I'm following you into the abuse

don't believe in the answer I just cannot say
ask but don't look in my eyes

you'll be surprised if you turn to see and then just look away
the truth is that you're gonna die

taking your time
to believe what you heard
you see it so
give it a try

your senses are lyin'
and trust is all dead
just ask me
I know what you'll find

search for the answer
you don't wanna know
there's only one way
it's a lie

holding a truth
and it's already old
the only way
you're gonna die

I hope this is the only album they ever make, it is sublime and would be a shame if they ever made any more, they might seem like a real band then! ;-) mikespall
