Lyrics Slipping - The Loveless

Slipping

How far you are — your eyes so lit
You were my star — you were my bliss
All said and done — here as we part
The dark keeps falling — upon my heart
The road lies open wide
But everything seems to die in these hands
Yeah the road lies open wide
And I lie 'wake tonight, oh come sweet death
The dusk of hope — in a dawn of tears
In pain I choke — for years and years
I’ll toss and turn — in this twilight burn
Black unholy flame
The road lies open wide
But everything seems to die in these hands
Yeah the road lies open wide
And I lie awake tonight, oh come sweet death
Never to speak — never to hear — never to hold you again
Never to see — never to touch — never to feel you again
