Lower Than Life

(album: American Nightmare - 2000)

The silence says enough
Tonight there will be no saving grace
The wolves have broken through the gates
And found me drunk in the fountain of youth
A run to a walk to a crawl
Years go by before I notice at all
Makes me sick
Makes me think
Makes me sleep
Makes me drink

I can only keep the sky from falling for so long
So long

And the feet jump in for kicks that never end
And the feet jump in for kicks that never fucking end

I can only keep the sky from falling for so long
So long
All I want to do is hold everything I love safe
Within my crippled trying hands

To live among the ruins of love
To die below the bombs above
Broken hope
At the end of a rope
I am young and pure and
You have broke my heart

I feel it all crashing down on me
I feel it all crashing down on me
Deeper than hell
Lower than life
