Tired Hands

[Epic Post-rock instrumental intro]
[Epic Post-rock instrumental intro]

[Verse 1]
Light flickering in
Through the cracks in his blind
Illuminating, grotesque and obscene
He still cannot find

Engulfed by the ink
That penetrates his heart
He cannot think
Cannot speak, cannot move

[Post-rock instrumental]
[Post-rock instrumental]

[Chorus 1]
He was so lonely 
(He was)
Long nights endured him
(Always)
Right there beside him
(You were)
Too blind to see it
(He was) 

[Post-rock instrumental]
[Post-rock instrumental]

[Verse 2]
A lump in his throat 
Words lost to time
The chance blows over
A feeling, sublime

Connections are foreign
Like words in the water
Everything is falling down
Why even bother

[Chorus 2]
He was so lonely 
(He was)
Long nights endured him
(Always)
Right there beside him
(Radiant)
Too blind to see it
(No more)

[Post-rock instrumental crescendo]
[Post-rock instrumental crescendo]

[Verse 3]
Back in Bethlehem 
He was so unsure
But he can hear the words
Back from where he was

There was only melancholy
But that was his life
Not for anything 
Would he give it up

[Outro Verse]
So don't you
Feel so bad
Don't you feel so down now

It's alright
It's ok 
Everything
Will be fine now

[Post-rock instrumental outro]


[verse 1]
I wanted to take 
Everything in
All the highs all the lows
Life isn't a dream

From the bluest skies
A bolt to bring me back
The interior dies
The house built from bones
From the blood in your veins

[Post-Rock Instrumental]

[Chorus 1]
But I can't stop the tears
That well in my eyes
I'll fight the gods
To stop it, to stop time

[Post-Rock Instrumental]

[Post-Rock Instrumental]

[Chorus 2]
But I can't bring back the tears
That left your eyes
This isn't fair
Please gods stop time

[Post-rock instrumental crescendo]

[Verse 3]
The first time I saw
Ice running through your vein
A warmth ran through me
I cannot explain

It's selfish of me 
To curse the gods
It's the law of life
I miss you all the same

[Post-Rock Instrumental]


[Post-Rock Instrumental bridge]

[Post-Rock Instrumental Crescendo]

[Chorus 3]
But I can't stop the tears
That well in my eyes
I'll fight the gods
To stop it, to stop time

But I can't bring back the tears
That left your eyes
This isn't fair
Please gods stop time

[Post-Rock Instrumental outro]



[Post-Rock Instrumental Crescendo]

[Chorus]
But I can't stop the tears
That well in my eyes
I'll fight the gods
To stop it, to stop time

But I can't bring back the tears
That left your eyes
This isn't fair
Please gods stop time

[Chorus]

But I can't stop the tears
That well in my eyes
I'll fight the gods
To stop it, to stop time

But I can't bring back the tears
That left your eyes
This isn't fair
Please gods stop time
But I can't stop the tears
That well in my eyes
I'll fight the gods
To stop it, to stop time

But I can't bring back the tears
That left your eyes
This isn't fair
Please gods stop time


[Post-Rock Instrumental outro]



To stop it, to stop time

But I can't bring back the tears
That left your eyes
This isn't fair
Please gods stop time
