lyrics

On days like this when nothing seems forever and even to a fool, that’s a very long time, I’m staring at the sky, see no horizon, looking at a mirror, see only lies.
I ain’t slept for days, hearts broken I’m frayed, the tears do not come as I look at the words and they fall from the page.
So, try as we might, surrender or fight? ‘Cos he who lies flat don’t get knocked down I swear I heard someone once say.
On days like this when nothing seems forever and even all our fire has been turned into ice, I’m staring at the sky, see no horizon, looking at the mirror, wasting my time.
I ain’t slept for days, hearts broken I’m frayed, the tears do not come as I look at the words and they fall from the page.
So, try as we might, surrender or fight? ‘Cos he who lies flat don’t get knocked down I swear I heard someone once say.
