Senses Fail : In Your Absence
Lyrics
1. JETS TO PERU
Your face it will always remind me
That even though this world is cruel I'll always have a place
Cause your gaze, it puts me in a daze
It wraps in all of your love and it keeps me free from pain
I love you with all the blood that's flowing though my veins
The only the thing I ever need
Is you standing right next to me
The world could fall apart
You own my lonely heart
The only the thing I ever need
Is you smiling right back at me
The world could fall apart
You own my lonely heart
You're strong, you're smart and independent
You're an orange rhyming dictionary to a hopeless song
And your sickness, it hurts to be a witness
I wish that I could take all of your pain away
I love you with all the blood that's flowing though my veins
The only the thing I ever need
Is you standing right next to me
The world could fall apart
You own my lonely heart
The only the thing I ever need
Is you smiling right back at me
The world could fall apart
You own my lonely heart
Wait for me, wait for me on sweet avenue
Wait for me, wait for me on sweet avenue
The only the thing I ever need
Is you standing right next to me
The world could fall apart
You own my lonely heart
The only the thing I ever need
Is you smiling right back at me
The world could fall apart
You own my lonely heart
And I could fall apart
Cause you own my lonely heart
2. IN YOUR ABSENCE
Can we make a pact
If one of us dies, then other one will too
Cause I can't standing living in this world without you
Love is worth the risk
Without you my life would be worthless
I'd follow you into the abyss
When you leave this Earth, there'll be a hole in the place where
My heart used to beat, it will be empty
How the fuck am I supposed to care
About what's happening out there?
How the hell am I supposed to get used to all this death?
I wish I could forget
But no matter what I know how it ends
I swear I'll start drinking again
I wish I could pretend
That we'll hold each other close in heaven
But I lost my faith when I was seven
When you leave this Earth, there'll be a hole in the place where
My heart used to beat, it will be empty
How the fuck am I supposed to care
About what's happening out there?
How the hell am I supposed to get used to all this death?
Oh, the walls we build to keep our hearts from crumbling
I am not afraid of death
I am afraid of being left alone again
When you leave this Earth, there'll be a hole in the place where
My heart used to beat, it will be empty
How the fuck am I supposed to care
About what's happening out there?
How the hell am I supposed to get used to all this death?
3. DEATH BED
Sometimes I'm so afraid that one day I will lie awake
In this bed we've made and you'll be just a memory
The cancer took all your breath away from me
And what I'd miss the most is laughing at your awful jokes
And the certainty that you would never hurt me
But life's not fair and we only get so much time
The bell is tolling, it's softly pulling all of us to sleep
The loved ones we lose will stay with you, in your heart and in your dreams
The physical is just a means
And then what I'd do in this world without you
Is climb the highest mountain so we could be together again
I'd starve and I'd freeze to death under stardust of your eyes
The bell is tolling, it's softly pulling all of us to sleep
The loved ones we lose will stay with you, in your heart and in your dreams
The physical is just a means
Everyone I've ever loved will fade away into the sun
Everything that I am now will rust away
Do not fear the fading light, eternally this is what's right
Maybe what you thought was God was really just the love that you had for the ones who you can't live without
The bell is tolling, it's softly pulling all of us to sleep
The loved ones we lose will stay with you, in your heart and in your dreams
The physical is just a means
4. FAMILY TRADITION
I try to be the one that everybody loves
Where has that gotten me?
I tear myself to shreds to prove that I'm someone
That I could never be
Now these unsightly marks define me
So help me
Please someone come quick
I think I am losing it
Forgive me I inherited this
From a stranger I'll never miss
I'm sick
My father taught me firsthand how to be set free
Give up and run away
I wish I could drain out his half of blood in me
But I'd still have his face
I curse reflections everyday
So help me
Please someone come quick
I think I am losing it
Forgive me I inherited this
From a stranger I'll never miss
Here is my own family tradition
Following footsteps into addiction
So is there a way
That I can find peace while still numbing my pain?
Is this my fate?
Cause your only son still can't seem to find his way
So help me
Please someone come quick
I think I am losing it
Forgive me I inherited this
From a stranger I'll never miss
So father where the hell are you now?
I think that you would be proud
Your son, who so unluckily
Fell right next to the tree
I hope you're proud of me
I hope you're proud...
5. LOST AND FOUND
This island has become
An ocean and my boat's too small
The waves are crashing in
And I can't save this sinking ship
I sent out signal flares
But no one out there seems to care
Now the voice inside my head
Is the only thing that I have left
This is the part where I'll admit
I'm getting what I deserve
And now I'm lost at sea
I'm drowning in what I won't be
I'm haunted by the sound (Sweet sound of my last breath)
Twenty days at sea
My skin is blistered from the heat
I can beg and I can plead
But what I get is never what I need
This is the part where I'll admit
I'm getting what I deserve
And now I'm lost at sea
I'm drowning in what I won't be
I'm haunted by the sound (Sweet sound of my last breath)
And now I'm lost at sea
I'm drowning in what I won't be
I'm haunted by the sound (Sweet sound of my last breath)
Whoa whoa
I'm going down I'm going down
Whoa whoa
I'm going down I'm going down
This is the part where I'll admit
I'm getting what I deserve
And now I'm lost at sea
I'm drowning in what I won't be
I'm haunted by the sound (Sweet sound of my last breath)
And now I'm lost at sea
I'm drowning in what I won't be
I'm haunted by the sound (Sweet sound of my last breath)
