lyrics

the sky, the glass on the street
everyone, 1, 2, 3
and tonight, the glass on the street
everyone, 1, 2, 3

go

we still struggled to find ourselves
and struggled to uncover

will a thousand volts
revive us both?

sky claim these battered bones

I will now take off this blindfold
finally see where we are going
one less chance
there's nothing more for me
get me out alive
save my soul
save my soul, save my soul
one more time

it's what it is,
but at the time it was an endless ride
I'm weightless, and taking flight
carry the world over my shoulders
as best I could
exceeding speeds, she's on the threshold
looking in
I pass right by
and now I lye here trying to reason why

(I will now)

I will now
lift the blindfold
which has covered my eyes
and I'll gaze into the sun
'til I begin to see the ashes from my shadow
was the burning of my soul

now I'll take off the blindfold
which blankets my eyes
and I will gaze into the sun
to see the ashes of my shadow

it's what it is,
but at the time it was an endless ride
I'm weightless, and taking flight
carry the world over my shoulders
as best I could
exceeding speeds, she's on the threshold
looking in
I pass right by
and now I lye here trying to reason why

as the ticking clock had stopped at 10:00
and I had closed my eyes
I know the sound was only keeping me from you
through smoke and mirrors I will never reach the end
though I had tried
the door was open, you were out of sight

a dead connection, all I want to do is call her
remember the sound, sound of something real

and once again
we have changed everything
put the pieces back to make a whole
one more chance to right the wrongs
