Emily Merrell - Panacea Lyrics

Clouded in the gloom, that murky twilight tomb
A shadow wanders, but "Did you see? Just me?" Hey
Can't shake the feeling you are not alone. Force unknown chills your bones

She haunts the undergrowth, an amaranthine ghost
You start to shiver, but you're too proud, won't back down
Can't shake the feeling that you're in too deep. Stay asleep. Fever creeps

Can you see it? Can't you see the writing on the wall
How far you'll fall
Hold it while you still can. Hold it close, but you can't keep it
You can't keep it

She will catch you with the bait you left, and trade your pearls for stone
You will wake to see the Phoenix rising up from ash and bone
Holding up a mirror, you can see what you've been fearing
You're in retrograde. How fast you're fading
Loosen up your grip. Baby, blow me one last kiss
Let bygones be. Let bygones be

Emboldened by the day, you know the game we play
Take an angle, make a big move. Big news
Revolution in the sleight of hand. Son of man
Take a stand

We come from land and sea. We're dancing through your dreams
Shoulder to shoulder, make a big noise. One voice
Don't try to fight it. You can't stay the tide. Watch it rise
Step aside

Can you feel it? Can't you feel the shifting of the stars
How strong we are
Hold it while you still can. Hold it close, but you can't keep it
You can't keep it

We will catch you with the bait you left, and trade your pearls for stone
You will wake to see the Phoenix rising up from ash and bone
Holding up a mirror, you can see what you've been fearing
You're in retrograde. How fast you're fading
Loosen up your grip. Baby, blow me one last kiss
Let bygones be. Let bygones be
