Halos - Equilibrium Lyrics
The paint on your nails is chippedA screw in your head is stripped and loose,But I'm sure I have a bit that could fix you up right quickI will suck the poison outThen I'll hold that demon downI will take my saw and draw it on the base of his black tongueThe skin on your arm is tornOld habits die hardI can't say I wasn't warned"It's my release.I can ease away from time and freefall."So I'll prayI will lay hands on the painI will stayAnd I'll love away the hate that makes you rage"You're the stand-byYou're my little blessingI'm a wound and you're the dressingYou're the braces on my crippled legsYou're the rudder, the mast, and the heading:'Onward to smiling suns'Pull the anchorSet the ballastNow then, teach me how to run.""Our communication lacks.I get so sick of staring at your back."I heard you, now relaxIts how I deal, you'll learn with timeWhen you walk away, I've lost,and we talk the way we talk in the bitter throes of jagged proseand consof seeing this thing through"I'm trapped here,No salts, no tears,Just an empty hollow in my head,And a cold, wide space on the bed that I can't fill."
