Faultline Songtext
I was an eagle
Living on Syracuse high
I'll be just fine
I'll get what's mine
Pushing a needle
Would you stop to draw a line
Now the city lights are all entwined
We push and pull like tides
Like tides
Stay with me
I’d hate to see you fall
Down to the faultline
Take away the pain
And hold out for a win
Betrayed by hollow eyes
It's so unkind
It was just a dream
A bad, bad dream
How does it feel?
Now the river has run dry
What's left when hate subsides?
Could we talk and spare no lies?
No lies
Stay with me
I’d hate to see you fall
Down to the faultline
Take away the pain
And hold out for a win
Betrayed by hollow eyes
It's so unkind
It was just a dream
A bad, bad dream
I think the idea's ridiculous
When I do remember
It's only in my sleep
I was running with a wild horse
Were you calling out to me?
Were you calling out to me?
Stay with me
I'd hate to see you fall
Down to the faultlines
There's glory in our days
Even when they end
Our skin confines
His soul's untied
It was just a dream
A bad bad dream
Living on Syracuse high
I'll be just fine
I'll get what's mine
Pushing a needle
Would you stop to draw a line
Now the city lights are all entwined
We push and pull like tides
Like tides
Stay with me
I’d hate to see you fall
Down to the faultline
Take away the pain
And hold out for a win
Betrayed by hollow eyes
It's so unkind
It was just a dream
A bad, bad dream
How does it feel?
Now the river has run dry
What's left when hate subsides?
Could we talk and spare no lies?
No lies
Stay with me
I’d hate to see you fall
Down to the faultline
Take away the pain
And hold out for a win
Betrayed by hollow eyes
It's so unkind
It was just a dream
A bad, bad dream
I think the idea's ridiculous
When I do remember
It's only in my sleep
I was running with a wild horse
Were you calling out to me?
Were you calling out to me?
Stay with me
I'd hate to see you fall
Down to the faultlines
There's glory in our days
Even when they end
Our skin confines
His soul's untied
It was just a dream
A bad bad dream
