Lyrics for The Shining Of Things

Take my word for it this never should've happened What in the world do you think got into me? We fire at will and as we watch the pieces shatter We find were closer than we've ever been She calls my name and I come running I have lost the voice I listened too And in the blindness as my world stops turning Theres a sadness like I never knew But I still see the shining of things As the morning breaks it hardly seems to matter I hear a shallowness in everything I say We've played the night out in all too familiar fashion To wear the heartache through another day She calls my name and I come running I have lost the voice I listened too And there's a stillness now the rains stopped falling Theres a sadness like I never knew But I see the shining of things
