lyrics

I've heard that you have feet
Light as fallen leaves
And you have outrun almost every living thing
Leopard, horse and hare
And even your own guilt and shame

Then all thats left is the dilemma
The fear of life with too much shelter
No mountain or valley
Just desert, dry as flame

So you call upon a storm
From your bed too safe and warm
A year has gone by you hear the thunder and you know just what it is
Reflex, you start out from the blocks
Wings on your ankles shimmering

But as you tire
Hail pounding behind you
In front, a cliff
Sheer looking down, you're paralysed

With your bleach white breath
WIth your baited breath
You're dying to see whats next
There's no hedge for that bet
With your bleach white breath
bleach white breath
Dying to see whats next
Dying, to see what comes next
