Stay Visible lyrics

The road opens wide

There's space here for two of us

If I could slip under the wire

We'd wait here, just stay here a while

Slumped, the body's tired

And this fear never lets me sleep

Your smile, this trial elates

In your eyes, I see mother's open gates

If fortune could smile

There'd be room here for two of us

And I would burn myself through the wire

With this hate concentrated

Unearthed, disparate in time

Once in a while

If peace held for two of us

If we could show mercy awhile

With patience transcending

This cold, never ending, through time

If home still matters

If these bones were not so shattered

What state, so desperate

Within a hollow shell, in a forgotten state

Come tear the dirt from my eyes
