  • Close the doors
    If you want to seen her breathing again
    Blur the days
    Sleeping is just not an option

    How come every time I walk, you crawl?
    Then you cut out all the letters that make up this note
    I won't, I won't give up until I find out
    Until I find what happened to you

    The solution inhaled from the rag I hold
    Holds a maximum vacancy
    As I held you in crippled bandages
    Don't you stay up and wait for me

    Left dangling in the wind

    You're not there
    I poke needles in the neck of a doll
    She pokes back
    Asking why can't I just let her out

    How come every time I walk, you crawl?
    Then you cut out all the letters that make up this note
    I won't, I won't give up
    Until I find of you

    The solution inhaled from the rag I hold
    Holds a maximum vacancy
    As I hold you in crippled bandages
    Don't you stay up and wait for me

    Left dangling in the wind

    Don't let the days escape
    What I did brings more of them
    And we'll be waiting just for them
    Over my dead body
    Over the search they lead
    They won't find them anymore

    Don't let the days escape
    What I did brings more of them
    And we'll be waiting just for them
    Over my dead body
    Over the search they lead
    They won't find them anymore

    Now that I collect
    From cells that we once shared
    With multi-headed union
    Of multiple selves

    The solution inhaled from the rag I hold
    Holds a maximum vacancy
    As I held you in crippled bandages
    Don't you stay up and wait for me

    The solution inhaled from the rag I hold
    Holds a maximum vacancy
    As I hold you in crippled bandages
    Don't you stay up and wait for me
