I've been up at this all night long

I've been drowning in my sleep

I've prayed for your safe place

And its time for us to leave

Time is running, is running on empty and the gas is running out

I've decided that tonight is the night

That I set love aside

Speed ahead this seems to be the place

I've seen this once before

Planned perfection sought in my dreams

Hoping this would take you home

My knuckles have turned to white

There's no turning back tonight

So kiss me one last time

Around this turn where the cross will cast your shadow

The people will all gather

To remember such a day where the flames grew as high as trees

And the world stopped for you and me

My knuckles have turned white

There's no turning back tonight

Kiss me one last time

Shut your eyes

My knuckles have turned white

There's no turning back tonight

Kiss me one last time

Shut your eyes

I will now bring new meaning to the word alone

Endless nights of dreaming of life

And the days we should have spent here

Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep

Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep

Glass shatters and comes to a halt(Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep)

I thought we'd be there by now(Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep)

I thought it would be so much quicker than this(Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep)

Pain has never been so brilliant(Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep)

I made sure you were buckled in(Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep)

Now you can walk hand in hand, hand in hand with him(Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep)

My knuckles have turned white

There's no turning back tonight

Kiss me one last time

Shut your eyes

My knuckles have turned white

There's no turning back tonight

Kiss me one last time

Shut your eyes.
