Lyrics for Sky Took Hold
Your mind is erasing The sky took hold Of all my little daily fears They never seem to go A dusty vista You hunger for the core I never meant to take it so far In me it never shows Who I am beneath the surface Hiding out so long inside my mind Every day I stay, run through it And it comes and tears me open Why? All the time Your heart is erasing The time just grows And left me with little doubt That there's anywhere to go I'm pushing forward To leave this home I never meant to stay so long My reflection never showed Who I am beneath the surface Hiding out so long inside my mind Every day I stay, run through it And it comes and tears me open Why? All the time Since I was a young boy It was always there Inside me growing None of it seems fair I've grown to accept it Let it take the stage And leave me helpless Watching far away Since I was a young boy It was always there Inside me growing None of it seems fair I've grown to accept it Let it take the stage And leave me helpless Watching far away
