lyrics

No I can’t leave the bottle behind
Though it seems it’s all run dry
If I could only find a place in this skin
See the one I’m holding’s wearing thin

It’s just wasting time to break the decay
Ever since Eden saw grey
As it opened up a place in the sky
And set us up to believe the lie

And it’s all right when you rise above
When you’re searching for a thing
That you know you’ll never see in this world
There’s more inside his disguise gone before the blink of an eye
We were never made for this world

We can try and leave the body and mind
And leave this world behind
If I could only find a place in this skin
And hold you in my arms again

Now it’s all right when you rise above
You keep hoping to believe
What you know you’ll never be in this world
You know it’s the saddest of skies blinded by the wink of an eye
We were never made for this world

Now it’s all right when you rise above
You keep hoping to believe
What you know you’ll never be in this world
You know it’s the saddest disguise blinded by the wink of an eye
We were never made for this world
