Fault Line

We tread the water just to keep our bodies warm

They say it's darkest just before the break of dawn

Raised on bedtime tales of the leviathan below

Unholy enemies, so faceless, dark and cold

Every second leaves us guessing

Stepping backward and regressing

Cracks will form and show

How far we are from what we think we know

Taloned claws will tear me open

Sharpened knivеs will cut the rope

Let us fall, lеt us see that we deserved it all

We're holding tighter to every moment

But it's only just a matter of time

Say a prayer, before you run out of air

We're heading straight for a fault line

If only we could open our eyes

I won't die for this, I won't die for you

'Cause I'd kill to be anywhere but here with you

And I take no solace

In the knowledge that we're doomed

Bound from birth to tomb

We found a hole in the armor, found a break in the chain

And we promised ourselves it wouldn't happen again

(So Heaven help me now)

We built a temple to the clouds

(Keep my feet aground)

Too self-obsessed to guess

We'd watch it all come crashing down

I didn't climb this high to watch us stoop so low

(We tied the loop at the end of the rope)

We're holding tighter to every moment

But it's only just a matter of time

Say a prayer, before you run out of air

We're heading straight for a fault line

If only we could open our eyes

So keep on treading water 'til your blood runs cold

And when the void opens up beneath you

You're better off to face it alone

Black hole

Ambition, extinction, we're all bound to repeat

Contrition, perdition, until again we meet

Until again we meet

If this is all we are, the flickers of a dying star

We never stood a chance

So if you see me leaving, just give me one good reason

To wait around, stand beside you as the sky falls down

If this is all we are, the flickers of a dying star

We never stood a chance

We're holding tighter to every moment

But it's only just a matter of time

Say a prayer, before you run out of air

We're heading straight for a fault line

If only we could open our eyes
