lyrics

Watch now the spring turns to summer
Like a terrible sound that you thought you’d erased
Like a pill in your throat that’s too bitter to swallow
It’s a terrible time in a terrible place

I broke a branch, I saw a chance,
We’d have to escape to forget it
I found a path, I knew the way
But it was gone by the morning light

Deep in the shadows, deep underground
There is a hope that you’re holding somehow
You know it’s all just part of the lie
Everyone laughs until everyone dies

Deep in the water, you’re waiting for rain
The river is runnings the banks once again
You know it’s all just washing away, but you say you’ll stay

Call on the fires that burn us
Pull on the ropes that hold us fast
Walk with me into the dark of the forest
Everything breaks when it opens at last

I broke a branch, I caught a breath
I saw a chance to forget it
I lost the path, I knew the way,
But it was gone by the morning light

Deep in the shadows, deep underground
There is a hope that you’re holding somehow
You know it’s all a part of the lie
Everyone laughs until everyone dies

Deep in the water, you’re waiting for rain
The river is running the banks once again
You know it’s all just washing away, but you say you’ll stay
