Against my heart i keep this clock Ticking in sync with my mortality Every whisper is amplified with the height Eventually we will all fall And please don't take away the cold It keeps us who we are And please don't numb the pain Anymore more than you can stand it It keeps us human As the burning sense of weakness sedates us Even though we see, we are at peace Through the walls a consciousness lies Shouting out and begging us And please don't take away the cold It keeps us who we are And please don't numb the pain Anymore more than you can stand it It keeps us Living numb is worse than letting rage swallow you If I sleep will it be the same when I wake A blackout line against the blue and white Into the green waves beneath the sky I hear them calling out And please don't take away the cold It keeps us who we are And please don't numb the pain Anymore more than you can stand it It keeps us human
