[Verse 1]
I've been here just lying in the basement
Keeping my head up and my eyes closed
I forget what I was erasing
I guess I don't need to know
The days will take their toll if you let them
And we'll always keep coming back for more
They put us in our place just like an old friend
Who knows who we were before
[Chorus]
You know it's just too much to bear
Is there anyone out there
I want to love someone but if it's not you I don't care
Cause it's just to much, just too much to bear
[Verse 2]
My window fills with infinite colors
If only I could move them under my brush
I don't know why I'd even bother
They'd all bleed into one
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Pieces of the sky (I won't invite)
Water from your eyes (I'll let it lie)
Fires that won't light
Without you
[Coda]
I had your hopes
I had your faults
I had your fears
To try to calm
I had your eyes
To guide along
Out of the dark
Now that they're gone...
