Lyrics:
A currency of heartache and sorrow The air we breathe is stale with mould To shadows we are slaves digging deeper every day But emptiness is growing so old Headlamps light the tunnels we wander They shimmer and they dance on the walls We're lost inside these caves As the chances of escape Grow slimmer until there's no chance at all This ink it travels from the page up my hands into my veins, Choking on the stories I've told Are there words still left to say? I just want to let you know I'm falling to my knees right now I'm covered in the mess I made These colours used to wash right out But now they are part of me I've been searching for a remedy But all along its been in front of me I need you here I need you now, right now We traffic in the blackest of markets Trade misery like diamonds and gold, The angst that we exchanged For applause or petty praise, Is finally now taking its toll But there's a world above the ground A live that we can lead We're washing out the dirt from our clothes I don't want to live without I just want to let you know I'm falling on my knees right now I'm covered in the mess I made These colours used to wash right out But now they are a part of me I've been searching for a remedy When all along its been in front of me I need you here I need you now, right now Right now (Black stains) They mark me like a mirror (Don't fade) Cracking under the pressure (Black stains) Nothing stays gold There's a world above the ground. A life that we can lead But we're lost Deep down in these holes I have seen the way out Now I just want to let you know, I'm falling in my knees right now I'm covered in the mess I made These colours used to wash right out But now they are a part of me I've been searching for the remedy But all along its been in front of me Your voice it washed the stains away
