Pain of Salvation - ICON lyrics
[Pain of Salvation - ICON lyrics]
She keeps on calling me i keep hanging up
It's not that I don't want to talk
I just fear listening
As a child it worried me
That all the ones I loved would one day die
I still recall when I realized
I couldn't save them no matter how I tried
I couldn't wait to be a man
The grown-ups seemed to handle life just fine
But here I am, still terrified
See, growing up will just teach
You how to smile
I followed you from the sun in my childhood
I followed you through the river to the sea
I followed you where the
Waves turn to wasteland i followed you
Now they follow me
As a child I felt too old
And now when I'm grown-up I feel too young
A different kind so I've been told
Just slightly out of reach and out of time
I count the years to understand
The faces of the friends I used to know
I close my eyes and they're still the same
How to mourn the living that are still around
Yet somehow gone
I followed you from the sun in my childhood
I followed you through the river to the sea
I followed you where the
Roads turned to wasteland i followed you
Now they follow me
Yes i followed you and the
Spring turned to summer
I followed you and the river turned to sea
I followed you
Now the roads dress for winter
I followed you now they follow me
I'm on my way now, way now
I'm on my, on my way now
I'm on my way now (Way now)
I'm on my way now (Way now)
I'm mostly doing fine they rarely see me cry
But, you are always on my mind
I'll live another night
I'll walk another mile
But, you are always on my mind
I'm mostly doing fine they rarely see me cry
But, you are always on my mind
I'll live another night
I'll walk another mile
Still, you are always on my mind
She keeps on calling me
She kee-, keeps on calling
Calling, calling, calling, calling
She keeps on calling me
She keeps on calling
Calling, calling, calling, calling
(I'm on my way now)
I'm on my way now, way now
I'm on my way, on my way now
She keeps on calling me
I'm on my way now, way now
She keeps on calling, calling, calling
Calling (I'm on my way now)
She keeps on calling, calling, calling
Calling
I keep hanging up i keep hanging up
I keep hanging up
It's not that I don't want to talk
I just fear listening
As a child it worried me
That all the ones I loved would one day die
I still recall when I realized
I couldn't save them no matter how I tried
I couldn't wait to be a man
The grown-ups seemed to handle life just fine
But here I am, still terrified
See, growing up will just teach
You how to smile
I followed you from the sun in my childhood
I followed you through the river to the sea
I followed you where the
Waves turn to wasteland i followed you
Now they follow me
As a child I felt too old
And now when I'm grown-up I feel too young
A different kind so I've been told
Just slightly out of reach and out of time
I count the years to understand
The faces of the friends I used to know
I close my eyes and they're still the same
How to mourn the living that are still around
Yet somehow gone
I followed you from the sun in my childhood
I followed you through the river to the sea
I followed you where the
Roads turned to wasteland i followed you
Now they follow me
Yes i followed you and the
Spring turned to summer
I followed you and the river turned to sea
I followed you
Now the roads dress for winter
I followed you now they follow me
I'm on my way now, way now
I'm on my, on my way now
I'm on my way now (Way now)
I'm on my way now (Way now)
I'm mostly doing fine they rarely see me cry
But, you are always on my mind
I'll live another night
I'll walk another mile
But, you are always on my mind
I'm mostly doing fine they rarely see me cry
But, you are always on my mind
I'll live another night
I'll walk another mile
Still, you are always on my mind
She keeps on calling me
She kee-, keeps on calling
Calling, calling, calling, calling
She keeps on calling me
She keeps on calling
Calling, calling, calling, calling
(I'm on my way now)
I'm on my way now, way now
I'm on my way, on my way now
She keeps on calling me
I'm on my way now, way now
She keeps on calling, calling, calling
Calling (I'm on my way now)
She keeps on calling, calling, calling
Calling
I keep hanging up i keep hanging up
I keep hanging up
