[Verse 1] Close my eyes and drift into the silence Barely see the ultraviolet Slipped and fell into the deep end Oh, the sidewalk shimmer just like diamonds All the empty words were flying Well, the heart was low, but I never was alone I never was alone [Chorus] I've been running for so long All that's left is skin and bones Close my eyes, fight to carry on Sometimes it makes no sense at all If I stumble, will I fall? If I fall, I'll tuck and roll Close my eyes and let the love-light guide me home Let the love-light guide me home [Verse 2] One step fades and falls into another I'm not getting any further Left here feeling like an alien All the shiny sidewalks, they were lying Lost myself while I was hiding And the heart was low, but I never was alone I never was alone [Chorus] I've been running for so long All that's left is skin and bones Close my eyes, fight to carry on Sometimes it makes no sense at all If I stumble, will I fall? If I fall, I'll tuck and roll Close my eyes and let the love-light guide me home Let the love-light guide me home [Bridge] Heart's so empty almost all the time Blind devising ways to lead the blind And it seems as if there's no end in sight I don't wanna be there when it all goes down But if I gotta be there, don't let me hit the ground Can I hit the ground? [Chorus] I've been running for so long All that's left is skin and bones Close my eyes, fight to carry on Sometimes it makes no sense at all If I stumble, will I fall? If I fall, I'll tuck and roll Close my eyes and let the love-light guide me home Let the love-light guide me home Let the love-light guide me home
