A Close Study Lyrics by The River (Band)

Drawing Down the Sun

0

The mourners bow their heads
But I am not a part
Of their flow in the evening rain
Despite how hard I try
I'm left just to be
Lonely and afraid
My sober thoughts are there
I have kept them away
A silence through the glass
It's colder when you're here
Your vanity makes me bleed
Delusions never pass
Your silence helps me pull away
I push you further from my thoughts
You may be pleased with how I feel
But a friend is all I sought
The days just blend into a whole
The pale skies just seem to grow
I have so much to give
More than you'll ever know
My useless pulse is through
My hope is given away
My trust has been misplaced
As I struggle through the haze
If you simply saw my face
I'd find a way to stay
We didn't speak at all
Of how we felt
It doesn't matter now
And so you're gone
No one seems to want
Me to be around
Losing myself
In nowhere
Away from your eyes
But what do you care
If I'm not here
Just tell me why
