lyrics

i'm tired and the voices call as i walk down the street
they howl and they crawl but i'm numb from my head to my feet
i call to my memory with a vague hope that he made a mistake
there is no way to unsay what you said

my eyes a blur, my feet drag to the lull of the drums
my heart ablaze with a friction that'll burn the sun
and i call to reason with a vague hope that he has an answer
well i lose but at the same time i cannot surrender

'cause you know
i'll fall at your feet
at the hint of a call at the sound of a pin drop
'cause you know
i'll fall at your feet
in the beat of a sigh
at a sign that you'll change your mind
your mind

my knees are weak my head spins with the swell of the hum
my heart ablaze with a friction that'll burn the sun
and i call to faith with a vague hope that he knows what to do
you know i'll wait, i'll wait, i'm waiting here for you

'cause you know
i'll fall at your feet
at the hint of a call at the sound of a pin drop
'cause you know
i'll fall at your feet
in the beat of a sigh
at a sign that you'll change your mind
