Five Years

lyrics

Five years

(Chorus)
Five years flow like presents now
Tear the paper screen
Pull the past towards my heart
Warming bitter time
Five years not the healing, but
Words on either side
Spirits caught free falling, love
Is such a sweet surprise

I have often sifted through
All the memories that haunt me
And I have often lost myself
In self indulgent pain
I’ve bottled up and run away
Cut myself from living hearts
What was it I couldn’t face
Well what ever it was must have passed

(Repeat Chorus)

If I travel far away
And though my life may change
Five years will not pass before
You hear my voice again

Is this what I need to make me breath
A mallet to my heart
What I need to bring me back
To all my secret parts
I am not heaven for her now
But the beast within her shadows
Once you saw that creature too
And five years did I run

(Repeat Chorus)
Love is such… a sweet… surprise
