He was never into pale reflection He was never into fireside Always wishing on a World War Christmas Mummy smiling down without her eyes Round and round in circles Pushing out the past I don't want you she said, paint this picture fast Hear you breathing so lightly Trying to cover your blinded side Pull your heartstrings Trying to run from the old demise (you know who you are) Trying to count, but the clock says nil Pull your heartstrings Trying to run, but you just stand still Fill your lungs with air Could you lie here when the ceiling crumbles Can you swim beneath a steely sea Open letter to an absent parent In the fire with the enemy Round and round in circles Pushing out the past I don't want you she said, leave this picture fast Hear you breathing so lightly Trying to cover your blinded side Pull your heartstrings Trying to run from the old demise (you know who you are) Trying to count, but the clock says nil Pull your heartstrings Trying to run, but you just stand still Fill your lungs with air Round and round in circles Running out of air Caught in endless cycles Burn all the bridges if you dare
