Sitting here, not feeling clear, wondring what's in your mind
Ten thousand stories, bound for glory, one two three four five
Without moving out of my suit of armour, I can still succeed
By building a house that's in my mind, but the garden's full of weeds
I thought she was slippin' away, but she's already gone
I thought she was slippin' away, but she's already gone
Living within but unaware that there's something beyond my doors
Where love can exist as a thing in itself, outside of my control
For letting go is the cardinal sin of surrender from my mind
To open the door, to go outside, to leave it all behind
I thought she was slippin' away, but she's already gone
I thought she was slippin' away, but she's already gone
Living within and living without, surrender to my soul
Leaving behind the living lie that lives within the home
Coming up, shaking off the dust, weary, not undone
Swirling and blinking in the light, I'm standing in the sun
I thought she was slippin' away, but she's already gone
I thought she was slippin' away, but she's already gone
I thought she was slippin' away, but she's already gone
