The Past Should Stay Dead

(album: Relativity - 2008)

Tailored sheets to fix this dirty bed
for once this dirt won't come all off.
It can't be pushed aside.
The wind is blowing through closed
doors with shadows dancing in the hall.
Now hit the floor crawl to the side.
We've all made better moves
despite the slowing of our feet.

For once lets leave the
dreaming to someone else.

Our time has slipped away.
We're sinking faster, faster.
No more play.
Get ready for the catch
I'm at the next step waiting for a year.

All at once it leaves you breathless
with next to nothing but open hands.
Reach out hold on tight.
I know it hurts but keep trying.
And with your luck this won't be over quick.
Out of the blue it strikes you.
What's left to catch but the fear of letting go?
(the fear of letting go)

I'm biting down.
The stress gets harder now.
The mood is let down.
Let it play for the last time.
Take this last second...

For once don't be so weak.
Back up the feelings that you claim now.
Fall deeper into a world
That you can't explain.

For once don't be so weak.
I see the mistake and it's you.
Don't try another line.
I know the truth.
And let it save you when nothing else will.
I will let it save you when nothing else will.
(Let It Save You.)

The mood is let down,
Let it play for the last time,
take this last second to know

We know who does it best,
Wind is blowing through closed doors
With shadows dancing in the hall.
Now hit the floor, crawl to the side,
We've all made better moves
despite the slowing of our feet.

Let hate save you when nothing else will.

I know the truth, it won't save you.
