Song Description

This song is the flirtation with freedom - the curiosity of what is out there in the world. Breaking (really running) from a relationship for another life, of exciting buzzing neon and opportunity, and the guilt of leaving behind a love that gave so much

Lyrics

Guilty

The guilty get no sleep at night
They struggle through their silence
and the hallways in their minds lead nowhere
I think of runnin? off tonight
And lead myself to places that with you - you never let me enter

It?s just vain, every time I look at you I feel like drowning
The walls I?ve built of stone so high

The city won?t allow me rest
I fall asleep to sirens, and to someone else?s night
My day?s they don?t belong to me
I walk along precise, my movement guided by the light

It?s just vain, every time I look at you I feel like drowning
The walls I?ve built of stone so high

Why should I run away when love is all around me?
When did I say goodbye to this?
How can I give my heart complete when life keeps changing?
And will you forgive me in your dreams?

The buzzing city whisper speaks
The night will never give up on me
I bend an ear to listen closely
The neon sky invites me now
I cannot hold my life in silence
I?m running toward all you?ve prevented

It?s just vain, every time I look at you I feel like drowning
The walls I?ve built of stone so high
To tear them down expose the boy who only tells himself he loves her
When will he confront this lie (and I ask myself in fleeting moments)

Why should I run away when love is all around me?
When did I say goodbye to this?
How can I give my heart complete when life keeps changing?

Will you forgive me when I say that love is blind, but my vision is gone
Now T.V.?s ultra violet gives me everything (I?m everything I need)

Why should I run away when love is all around me?
When did I say goodbye to this?
How can I give my heart complete when life keeps changing?
