Beneath the wide arches
Where the wind always howls
In the shadows people whisper
There's a deal going on
Creak of a door
Lie awake on the floor
Shake at your core, wondering what is in store?
They say there's a light at the end of the tunnel
Sand in the hourglass trickles down through the funnel
Grasping for straws as you drown in black water
Gasping for air as the leashes get tighter
Remember when you danced among the trees
Do you remember the grass beneath your feet
There was a melody that you liked to hum
Now you've grown silent and forgotten where you're from
They say there's a place you'll be happy again
Where you'll dance with the trees and fly with the wind
Perhaps it's a pipe dream, but if life's just this nightmare
Would you rather wake up or get caught by these fancies?
Dear life, we're holding on for
Dear life, you've got your chokehold on
Dear life, you never cared for this
Dear life, Sincerely yours
Beneath the wide arches
Where the wind always howls
In the shadows people whisper
There's a deal going on
Just like before
Lie awake on the floor
Shaking at your core, wondering what is in store?
