lyrics

There is a life I left behind
so full of sparkling bright lights
it'll leave you blind
And now it's hard to find
anything that'll shine on through
so I'm saving my eyes for you

I met a world that was not real
so numb and alone that there was
nothing I could feel
And now I cannot tell
which direction I grew
so I'm saving my hands for you

And everything today is
just as strange as it was yesterday
the way that we still cannot say
the words we all need anyway

Oh, but right now
the living's easier for some
the ones who haven't noticed
what they never say is costing days

I found an ocean made of fear
so large and loud its waves
were all that I could hear
And now the ringing's here,
so it's true
so I'm saving my ears for you

For all the places that I've been
I haven't seen a difference
my hint's that we don't have the sense
to know what's killing us and when

Oh, but wait
it's all the same
the way we steal from ourselves,
put it up, and marvel when it sells
