Isis - From Sinking lyrics
[Isis - From Sinking lyrics]
His time there so long
His fingers traced the endless walls
He knew so well
And there the breaths were short and
Hard and thick with salt
And in this place he always
Knew he'd wake alone
Hands clutch in panic
In this place he built of
Sand homes that caved
The walls were weak with salty tears
Through the cracks in these walls
He saw the sun
The sun dripped through the cracks and died
Shadows manage to betray
The sun dripped through the cracks and died
Shadows manage to betray
Like liquid was the sadness
Until into the light he stepped
Like liquid was the sadness
Until into the light he stepped
In this truth he knew himself to be damned
From sinking sands he stepped
Into light's embrace
Into light
Sinking deep like a
His fingers traced the endless walls
He knew so well
And there the breaths were short and
Hard and thick with salt
And in this place he always
Knew he'd wake alone
Hands clutch in panic
In this place he built of
Sand homes that caved
The walls were weak with salty tears
Through the cracks in these walls
He saw the sun
The sun dripped through the cracks and died
Shadows manage to betray
The sun dripped through the cracks and died
Shadows manage to betray
Like liquid was the sadness
Until into the light he stepped
Like liquid was the sadness
Until into the light he stepped
In this truth he knew himself to be damned
From sinking sands he stepped
Into light's embrace
Into light
Sinking deep like a
