Waltz

from Gravity and Grace by Respire

/

lyrics

Through the crowd we gently fall,
Faces like caricatures of broken dreams, of broken hearts.
This desperate longing rises within me,
its hands tight around my neck.
Around my neck.

It’s just that I falter often.
It’s not resolve, but escape I’m after.
And the way that this is drowning. That this is giving up
On everything I’ve worked so hard to keep.
So hard to keep.

These lights, the way they illuminate the gentle valleys of your figure as you stagger across the room. In the slow motion picture of our final waltz you look like the specter I saw by my deathbed.
Grab my hand, let’s sleep forever.

The air feels thin.
The weightlessness astounds me.
My worries evanesce with the coming of the tide.
It swallows up all of this hate,
And I feel euphoric enough to fade.
To fade away.
Away.
Away.
Away.

From the edge of the cliff,
I’ll look back at my wasted life
And laugh as I jump.
