Hang Wire - The Fall Lyrics

Behind those walls
Lives what you fear the most
Reveal yourself
In front of a crowd
That wants to rip off your limbs
And see if you still feel
They push your essence away
To calm their hunger

Can you hear them?
All thoughts at once
And every forced smile
You make
Calms all the pain
That they feel
For a price
That you choose to pay

End it now
Stop giving
Every drop of your innocence
Free them now
From their disgrace
They need to learn
How to feel abstinence
It seems you enjoy to sacrifice
Every trace of your humanity
Until they fall
In reverse

Look up at the sky
And then you'll realize
This empty life
It's a heavy load to carry
Through this way full of thorns
Don't give the other cheek
Cause instead they will
Cut out your eyes

Can you
See through?
Fade out
And break through...

End it now
Stop giving
Every drop of your innocence
Free them now
From their disgrace
They need to learn
How to feel abstinence
It seems you enjoy to sacrifice
Every trace of your humanity
Until they fall
In reverse
