Suddenly Lyrics by James Corvus

Recede

2018

[Intro- Clip from "Suddenly" - Sterling Hayden & *Frank Sinatra*]
You're a very careful man
*That's right.*
Plan on everything, huh?
*The first man they shoot to the moon in a rocket will take pains too, 'cause that's never been done before. Neither has this.*
Doesn't that worry you?
*Haven't got time to worry.*

[Verse 1]
I'm still awake at 4AM
I'm tired and I can't sleep again
The streetlights glow a shade of red
I told you that I needed space
And now your voice is on replay
I would call but I don't know what to say

[PreChorus]
I left you underground
You didn't make a sound
It doesn't matter
'cause life moves faster when no one's watching
And I couldn't make amends
I couldn't play pretend
It doesn't matter
'cause life moves faster when no one's watching

[Chorus]
There's a mountain in your eyes
It all crumbled suddenly
I couldn't see right in front of me
And we're stuck
Messed up
There's a risk of losing you
I don't know what to do

[Verse 2]
Last week sometime at 2AM
The sky turned ocean blue
And then it felt like deja vu again
You left alone, or so I'm told
We spoke and let the truth unfold
We crumbled but I didn't know

[PreChorus]
I left you underground
You didn't make a sound
It doesn't matter
'cause life moves faster when no one's watching
And I couldn't make amends
I couldn't play pretend
It doesn't matter
'cause life moves faster when no one's watching

[Chorus]
There's a mountain in your eyes
It all crumbled suddenly
I couldn't see right in front of me
And we're stuck
Messed up
There's a risk of losing you
I don't know what to do

[Break]
I don't wanna slip now
But I'm hanging off the edge
I don't wanna slip now
Don't let go
I don't wanna slip now
It's all getting in my head
I don't wanna slip now
Don't let go

[Chorus]
There's a mountain in your eyes
It all crumbled suddenly
I couldn't see right in front of me
And we're stuck
Messed up
There's a risk of losing you
I don't know what to do
