Relapse - Polaris

I could sit and watch in silence

As the space grows in between

Returns me to a grim serenity

But every breath I breathe I crave it

The solemn slow surrender

The bitter pill to medicate me, sedate me

But the days are getting longer

I can feel it slip away

(Feel it slip away)

The poison in my head’s become the poison in my veins

Wake me when it’s over, I’m dying to believe

(Dying to believe)

I’ve never felt as lonely as I do when you’re here with me

The vultures hover: persistent disease

Nine circles deep, we try to sleep

Eyes opened wide in disbelief

I’m nothing more than a sedentary waste of space and air

A disappointment to myself, to you and everybody else

Too strung out to ever face

How I long to fucking leave this place

I know you’ll be there beside me

If I could tear down the walls between us

Tear down the walls between us

There could be something here to hold

Something that’s worth salvaging, that I could not let go

I know, this chemical delay

Can’t be the only thing that brings me clarity

But the days are getting longer

I can feel it slip away

(Feel it slip away)

The poison in my head’s become the poison in my veins

Wake me when it’s over, I’m dying to believe

(Dying to believe)

I’ve never felt as lonely as I do when you’re here with me

Would you still be there beside me?

If I could tear down the walls between us

Tear down the walls between us
