No Footing

wake up! you're asleep!
can't you see you are pushing us away?
it's not all about you, we all have to eat
somehow you've been shutting us out for too long
but it all ends here, we can see through you

you run us dry to unreveal
all the things that you tell us are simple lies
and underneath it all you are trying to run
there's no footing at all

you cry for love but you seem to have run out of tears
rivers of defeat seem to be all you can give
somehow you've been shutting us out for too long
but it all ends here, we can see through you

you run us dry to unreveal
all the things that you tell us are simple lies
and underneath it all you are trying to run
there's no footing at all

running against time you are falling down and
all you see when you're facing the ground
is a portrait of yourself stabbing your own
we can see your back vanishing when you
run against time you're falling down and
all you see when you're facing the ground
is a portrait of yourself being dead

you run us dry to unreveal
all the things that you tell us are simple lies
and underneath it all you are trying to run
there's no footing at all
