Vain

Sometimes the sky pales down
sometimes silence swells to sound
in these times my blood freezes like ice
in these times my soul stops to think twice

Is it all in vain
that I feel any pain
are they too far gone
gone like last notes of a song
am I chasing vapors
why spend time loving haters
am I shouting to deaf ears
blind eyes see no fears
have you no understanding
theres no place for landing
I'm screaming at the top of my lungs
can you hear this song coming unstrung
Then I sigh back down
and I am quite unsound and undone

I feel like a hurricane
please tell me its not in vain
did he bleed for nothing
can you see it might be something
I feel like the driving rain
you're crawling away
please don't go
please don't go
with all of my heart I want to save your soul
but the words just wont come out
I'm a slave to the silence now
Your fading out
your fading out
is this all in vain
play the string
and get your way
be the puppet who cant runaway
be the one who slumbers without sleep
one of these days you'll find you cant keep your gold
you'll slip and fold without a foothold
I find myself reeling
can you see me feeling
your pain
in vain
