Wonder Lyrics by Burials

The View from Here is Beautiful, But the Air is So Thin

2015

I'm scared that I'll never have a reason for anything
That the mystery repulses
When the curtain rolls back at the end
Wide eyed from the night-sweats and fever
Bones that ache for the break of the day
Some respite from the clawing for answers you wish for but won't ever find
Eyes affixed on the gleam now before me
But hesitation atrophies the will
Moments of perfection, cruelly choked by adoration
"To fix the zenith is to contemplate decline"

Are you afraid like I'm afraid?
Are you afraid?
Are you afraid like I'm afraid?
This is no way to live
Terror in every breath

I stay prepared and I don't pray
And nothing hears, and you won't change
Any places
Any people
All this failed love torn away
I try not to let it bother me
I just sit and wonder away
I wonder and wonder away
I wonder and wonder away
I wonder what's waiting for me
