Sleeping At Last - Touch lyrics

When will I feel this
As vivid as it truly is?
Fall in love in a single touch
And fall apart when it hurts too much
Can we skip past near-death clichés?
Where my heart restarts as my life replays

All I want is to flip a switch
Before something breaks that cannot be fixed


I know, I know, the sirens sound
Just before the walls come down
Pain's a well-intentioned weatherman
Predicting God as best he can
But, God, I wanna feel again

Rain or shine, I don't feel a thing
Just some information upon my skin
I miss the subtle aches
When the weather changed
The barometric pressure we always blamed

All I want is to flip a switch
Before something breaks that cannot be fixed

Invisible machinery
These moving parts inside of me
Well they've been shutting down
For quite some time leaving only rust behind

Well, I know, I know, the sirens sound
Just before the walls come down
Pain's a well-intentioned weatherman
Predicting God as best he can
But, God, I want to feel again
Oh, God, I want to feel again

Down my arms a thousand satellites
Suddenly discover signs of life
