lyrics

in the small hours you go searching for your wolf
the broken glass beneath you
to remind you
you're alone now as before
neath the amber glow
so isolate
you'll go seeking answers
but the only thing you'll know
is that God don't know your name
but they do
the blood runs cold through you
closing in behind you
as your heart
jumps out through your throat
don't say we never warned you

now the dull ache
of the past you can't escape
will spill out on the street
as you scramble
to draw back from defeat
I wish I'd never seen it
as your thoughts turn against yourself
I wish you couldn't hear it
in your heart
a sense of longing for a world that you can't see now

there is another world beyond this
you've caught the briefest glimpses
in the seconds you've known God
in the years of your lost love
in the yearning sense that something bigger lies beyond
outside of these four walls
is a blank page
and a chance to kill this fate
if you could just see beyond this
for loneliness, the slowest death
will eat the bones from out your chest
there is a place for you, I know
so could you let go?
there is a way to find the will to carry on
there is a way to find the will to bring the fight to God
if you could just see beyond
