I could sleep for a year
And wake up tired from a dream
Where you stand by the stream and I blink
And cold water consumes me
So I can't feel my hands
Or my insatiable demands
I could wake for an hour, or a day, or for a week
And let time be the nerves in my feet
Helps me walk through the street
But there's nowhere I could move
That's farther away than the memory of you
The longer that you live
The less becomes true
What could I do when you told me the truth?
When it's over, it finds a way to start anew
I didn't believe you but I wanted to dig
So I started to give, then you took my hand
Told me dead things live
And they talk to you
And they talk to you
And they talk to you
♪
I'm afraid that everything I love will fade away
At a speed, I could watch their decay
And when I brace for collapse
There'll be nothing left to grasp
And I'll go tumbling into nothing
I understand and I don't, and I know that I can't
You want more than to rant
You want answers, you want justice
But nothing will give you peace of mind
Not with the piece you left behind
Maybe the longer that you live
The less that you mind
What could I do when you told me the truth?
When it's over, it finds a way to start anew
I didn't believe you but I wanted to dig
So I started to give, then you took my hand
Told me dead things live
And they talk to you
And they talk to you
And they talk to you
And they talk to you
And they talk to you
And they talk to you
And they talk to you
And they talk to you
