As I ran down the street
All the faces appeared to me one by one
By the fifth I took a sudden turn
The melting snow revealed the bodies buried long ago
All the violence a man can take
The broken bones and broken homes beneath my feet
On the dark side, we'll meet again
And cook it up for one more dance
It's who we are
But I swear it'll be my last
And if I go, I go alone
In the eyes of the elephant
Nothing's too big and no one proves you wrong
But the kind they had to offer
Didn't do me good, it barely cracked the softer shell
On the dark side, we'll meet again
And cook it up for one more dance
It's who we are
But I swear it'll be my last
And if I go, I go alone
Yes, I've failed and I can't go back
I'm wasted beyond my years
And I've reached to let it go
Yes, I swear it'll be my last
And if I go, I go alone
But I've failed and I can't go back
I'm wasted beyond my years
And I've reached to let it goAll that I
Wanted was to slip away for a little while
'Cause I felt alone and I couldn't keep up with the world
All that I wanted was to slip away for a little while
'Cause I felt alone and I couldn't keep up with the world
Where am I? They're all gone
All is black and white, I think I have passed on
All so warm, all so calm
All these worries shutting down
Something's wrong, something's wrongA moment of and they're all gone
If I could close my eyes I'm sure I'd disappear
Here they come pulling me up from the mud
I've failed yet I'm holding on
Here they come I'm hiding in vain
My shadow and I in our house of cards
Never did I question myself for the truth
There never was a greater cause
Never did I open my eyes for you
But there it was, my greater cause
Here they come pulling me up from the mud
I've failed yet I'm holding on
Here they come I'm hiding in vain
My shadow and I in our house of cards
Here they come pulling me up from the mud
I've failed yet I'm holding on
Here they come I'm hiding in vain
My shadow and I in our house of cards
