City Of Salt - Water From The Rock lyrics

Dropped into silence black as pitch, a newly orphaned dream Where my reality will twist the Good and the Obscene And I would not fight you, but I've lost the war you promised I would win And all my energy is spent in losing you Back to the city I know best, a plague enough for three Where every Truth that could have lived is taken by the breeze My arms are tired, Lord, my soul is shaking in the wake of you! Like Moses' water from the rock, I'm bleeding you Last night I lost my only friend. Was it easier for you To dance on mountains while he bled for dreams of something true? And all my soul could want is something sacred, something I can choose But like a heart without a lock, I'm losing you If I knew now what I knew then Would you've stayed by my side, tempering lies? If I stood now where I stood then Would your recognize my swollen eyes? Cuz' all my visions fail where yours begin, this road Was carved out long ago, before I ever Nailed you to that cross! The curtain rises slow And I'm alone again. Oh, did I ever Know that you were anything like me?
