Bring On The Empty Horses

My breath collapses with the world around me

Shattered reflections and contradiction
My grip is slipping from the sand above
And it's a long way down, a long way down from here


Fate slips it's fingers around my racing heart
Shaking but standing, my conscious disbanding

Tell me I'm dreaming, I must be dreaming
Tell me I'm dreaming


Chorus:
Can't shake my conscious from this nightmare
Can't come to terms, is this reality

IS THIS REALITY
Can't find myself in my reflection
Tell me you're close behind, that I will be just fine

THAT I WILL BE JUST FINE

This structure's unstable, resting our hope on this unsound foundation,

Mark my words
The silence is torture; please tell me I'm not alone
That I'm not too far gone and not too far from home


The air in my lungs escapes me and though I have no strength left to stand
I will scream your name breathless to the distance in the hopes that it

will
Find your ears and bring me back to you


Breaths from the end, desperate,
Screaming your name, just silence
Wake me up


Chorus:
Can't shake my conscious from this nightmare

Can't come to terms, is this reality
IS THIS REALITY
Can't find myself in my reflection

Tell me you're close behind, that I will be just fine
THAT I WILL BE JUST FINE



My eyes are open but I swear I'm sleeping
Wake me up, wake me up



I stand alone, so stationary in the space between

A blink and a tear
My echoes keep me company
PLEASE HEAR ME,

My voice can't breach this distance between us or so it seems
PLEASE HERE ME NOW
'Cause my voice can't breach this distance


Let's make the earth shake
(Never back down)

Our screams make earthquakes
(heaven hark the sound) x 2
Shake me from this slumber

Reclaim my pulse and existence
Before I'm lost forever
Take me far from here
