I’ve been here before, but I can’t see your face.
As I’m shunted towards twilight, on roads I’ve crawled before,
My knees are bruised and battered – my palms are gravel worn.
I’ve been here before, but I can’t see your face.
And when I waltz into this wasteland with these veteran feet,
Will you meet me in the middle, and fill my hollow-cheeks? - ‘cause I’m so tired,
Yes I’m worn,
Yeah I’m fucked.
So please save me from my darkness,
Save me from my grit,
Save me from my clutches ‘cause I’m afraid I’ll never learn to let go of all my dreaming,
Let go of all I want,
Let go of all my demons that taunt me as I’m sinking deeper into the hole you’ve led me,
Into your great mystique,
Deep into your quicksand soul that strangles all my sanity.
‘cause when I die I want to be remembered by more than just my kin,
So save me some life and breathe into my soul,
Spare me the journey because I’m only getting older.
Yeah I’ve been here before but I can’t see your face.
