You bury your head in ideals penned in bed
Scrambled brains mask the pain of eight years of regret
Try as you might you just can’t go outside
Lest they all realise when you unmask those eyes
Here’s a chance to open up once more
If you wait for a raincloud you’ll drown in a storm
Eight years is far too long
If you live by the sword then you’ll die of frustration
Eight years has been and gone
The glory of bands writing lines in the sands
No regret is allowed when we cannot stand
When you can’t stand yourself or even the thought
Then you’ve no legs to stand on anymore
