Standard (EADGBE)

friday night and I'm sitting here empty

no spark to catch on anything on anything dry

nothing to hope for, no pain to feel

 my friends somewhere else

 caught up in themselves (lifeless)

 my family surrounds me, they're built in these walls

 their foot falls still stumbling beneath my floors

 but it doesn't mean anything

nothing at all

 no it doesn't mean anything

nothing at all

falling is flying, I'm reaching for the earth

sinking is dying, return to the womb before birth

I will not sink in the waters, I will fly

I will not drown in the depths, I will not die

 cause it doesn't mean anything

nothing at all

 no it doesn't mean anything

nothing at all

quickly decieved by the one in disguise

 who finally touched me with tears in his eyes

 he left me alone but he still held me tight, lifeless

now I'm alone and I understand

 the castles we built are all lost in the sand

 and though people play at the same masquerade

 I'm beginning to learn how to stand unafraid

falling is flying, I'm reaching for the earth

sinking is dying, return to the womb before birth

I will not sink in the waters, I will fly

I will not drown in the depths, I will not die

 'cause it doesn't mean anything,

nothing at all,

 no it doesn't mean anything,

nothing at all.
