Slip Away

AlphabetLyrics.com


Falling, falling, falling in unfamiliar space
'cause I was drenched in you before I even knew your name
Fading, fading, fading with the breath you take
See your southern heart hiding behind a city face.

Drowning out the fires
As I'm lying here awake
I can feel you slip away
Like I knew you would.

Don't you leave me in this silence
When you've seen all my mistakes
Now I'm looking for escapes
Like I knew I would.

Stalling, stalling, stalling till I take the blame
Yeah, I lied to you like a promise on new year's day
You saw me, saw me, saw me, I got nowhere to hide
Yeah, the worst of me is racing all around your mind.

Drowning out the fires
As I'm lying here awake
I can feel you slip away
Like I knew you would.

Don't you leave me in this silence
When you've seen all my mistakes
Now I'm looking for escapes
Like I knew I would.

Slip away, slip away, slip away
I'll slip away, slip away, slip away.

Drowning out the fires
As I'm lying here awake
I can feel you slip away
Like I knew you would.

Don't you leave me in this silence
When you've seen all my mistakes
Now I'm looking for escapes
Like I knew I would.

I can feel you slip away like I knew you would.
