lyrics

Staring at the Dark

why can't I sit with you tonite
n talk about our things
take me in your arms, hold me tight
n talk about our things
cuz struggle grows as this wind blows
naked beds, desire for love
hollow inside, vanished pride
emptiness at my side
a hidden tainted heart keeping time
till I hold your hand n hope you realize
how quick it all goes by
starin' at the dark, lookin' for the sun
which way to go, if n when to turn
walkin' in the dark, waitin' for someone
who can take you home n not leave you all alone
why can't I sit with you tonite
n talk about our things
take me in your arms, hold me tight
n talk about our things
cuz hardness tows as this wind blows
losin' control, desire for love
hollow inside, nowhere to hide
a sense of void at my side
a hidden tainted heart keepin' time
till I hold your hand n hope you realize
how quick it all goes by
starin' at the dark, lookin' for the sun
which way to go, if n when to turn
walkin' in the dark, waitin' for someone
who can take you home n not leave you all alone
a tainted heart turnin' over the pages
till I hold your hand n you understand
how quick it all fades
holdin' all the aces in our faces
n the clock tickin' away
n I'm starin'
starin' at the dark, lookin' for the sun
walkin' in the dark, waitin' for someone
n I'm starin'
