Separation Anxiety

from New World Hymnal by rhyb

/

about

Remixed by Myles Dobrowolski

lyrics

The chains that wrap around your heart
Protect you from the ones you love

Hiding from the light
She feels the presence of intruders
Knocking on her window sill
And trying to crawl in

Dwells inside the comfort
Of an idea growing deep within
Thinking every word escaping mouths
Set out to warp reality

Separation Anxiety

You're searching for the signs
To disassociate from choices
Trusting in the kind of God
That's easy to believe

Your life descends to chaos
As you lock the doors around you
Our desperate cries to save your soul
Drowned out by deafening black

Through passing eyes, gentle and true
Found in stone
See out from hers, they're thieves and ghosts
Through my own eyes
A fading love
A fallen star
Fallen star

Won't be long before you burn out completely

Open up to me, don't let me go
Let me know the thoughts you have that kept you away
Time for the truth to be revealed
Feel your fears fade to grey

Too young to tell
How I'd feel
What your failures would reveal
Beyond my flesh

This pain and this guilt in me still
Itch deep as bones all the moans
Forever etched in my skull

The chains that wrap around your heart
Protect you from the ones you love

If I could reach you
I'd take you back to the shores of sanity
But you're kept safe in your cocoon of vanity

If I could speak without setting you aflame
Show you the reason for me
If I could wave and you would see me
But you just see monsters

Through passing eyes, gentle and true
Found in stone
See out from hers, monsters and ghosts
Through my own eyes
The cold truth
I broke our love
Broke our love
