lyrics

Turn off the light
This headache is blinding my sight
Give me your wrist
So you can't hurt yourself with your fist
All this fear and doubt
Is just trying to fight it’s way out

This box of stones
Made me feel we weren't alone
Now I can't hide
From this thought that we've been filled with lies

Open your eyes
Pull me inside
So I can

Hide with you my love
When our answers are not enough
When we question all we've seen
Come retreat to love with me

That’s where I’ll be
When you can’t understand
Why we think there is more
Than the sleight of our hands
When the curtain comes down
When silence is king
When people are fools
To believe in anything

I’ll hide with you my love
When our answers are no longer enough
When we question all we’ve seen
Come retreat to love with me

I’ll hide with you my love
When our answers are not enough
When we question all we’ve seen
Come retreat
Retreat with me

Turn off the light
This headache is blinding my sight
I dreamed last night
That we fell through the holes in our lives

I listened to a lot of Steve Lawson's music before buying any. So easy to play in the background while browsing on the iPad. So many moods and good to hear it coming as played live. He gets a lot from a bass and its in HD flac. It was time to catch up on buying... Alan Hall
