Lyrics
He pretends he's not him for his own sake
The joke's right there but leave them wanting more
That's not what it's for
They don't know what you saw
And they don't know how you ache
The sail, the veil, the wave upon the waves
The words wake hope and they live again and love again
And lightning and thunder and plundering rain
And hunger and pain
That's what it feels like to live again
And love again and live again
And love again and live again
I'm going off to hell and back, anything I can get for you?
Something I can cure you of and give you all my love
I've ran on empty on years, nothing new about this
Here's one for the almanac
Insanity's planted between them and him
You can't keep so woeful and yet awfully hopeful
The crystal contradicts that the future's grim
The odds of success are relatively slim
Insanity's the break between me and you
You can't have canned laughter and "happily ever after"s
Mumbling the question, "Who are you talking to?"
Resounding, deep-sounding, but nothing new
Nothing new
Nothing new
Take my eyes
How long stare?
What's so nice?
Nothing there
Evermore
Routine now
Can't keep on
Breaking down
Break him down
Break him down
Break him down
Evermore
Routine now
Can't keep on
Breaking down
Break him down
Break him down
Break him down
