Lyrics

Soon

Soon
I'll just be a bag of bones
body buried under an etch of stone
or scattered (in) water after they light me
like a picture show

and soon
My heart'll beat it's last one
I'm not courageous when I sleep tonight
the water's high
and you've got me feeling low
you've got me feeling low

Cause tonight
I can see through the bars, a sun
and I'm hoping that I'll make it home
You could be the beast that carries me there

Caught a glimpse of it at night
out of the corner of my eye
(I) don't believe in haunted homes
or the presences of ghosts
but

I believe I can die
I believe I could die
without another ray of sunshine

Soon
I'll repay for what I've done.
Can I sleep? Can I be alone?
Wish I was flying high in space, way up.

Cause tonight
still the water
I could break through sheets of ice
to fall beneath the surface
would be so nice

caught a glimpse of it at night
out (of) the corner of my eye
I don't believe in haunted homes
or the presences of ghosts
but
I caught a glimpse of one at night
a secret vision I can't deny
never meant to harm a fly
I believe I can die
