A flower in despair I wish that I could meet you there Tell you that it's all right That dusk will never fade to night And that I'll never watch you fade across The seconds on my clock A million pinprick electric shocks And all the while the stage is set I'd bring you into my embrace Reality would slip away The world still barely ringing in my ears Ten thousand empty gestures Ten thousand empty questions And you'd become the ringing in my ears All while the sky turns Black without a single star And the stage is set outside But in the darkness We still try Hmm Not another Syllable can struggle through my throat My words I have to choke for the both of us, I suppose But I just want to say I still love the way you play with The way that I emote You'll come back to me, I hope All that's left is to take the stage

Gloom and Doom and Some Other Stuff
A flower in despair I wish that I could meet you there Tell you that it's all right That dusk will never fade to night And that I'll never watch you fade across The seconds on my clock A million pinprick electric shocks And all the while the stage is set I'd bring you into my embrace Reality would slip away The world still barely ringing in my ears Ten thousand empty gestures Ten thousand empty questions And you'd become the ringing in my ears All while the sky turns Black without a single star And the stage is set outside But in the darkness We still try Hmm Not another Syllable can struggle through my throat My words I have to choke for the both of us, I suppose But I just want to say I still love the way you play with The way that I emote You'll come back to me, I hope All that's left is to take the stage
