lyrics

You were the one that time forgot,
In this hideous visage of a land that rejects you and I for who we are.

A vista of misgivings and repeated mistakes,
How do we stand brave against those who despise us?

With the wind howling and the song repeating,
Beating us down into the grave they made for us.

Though I thought I knew better,
Than to live life with your face in my mirror, and your skin clinging to my shoulders.

Though I could've had it worse,
For I could hate you as a person, but I don't.

For your eyes are my own,
And my voice echoes the same words as yours.

You see the world from my shoes,
And I feel the world from your fingers, with the passage of time dragging you with me.

So come down, come on down and listen,
Hear your voice ring through the air and sing into the rising sun of the Wednesday.

Come down and find me in our bed and rest.
