"A Disappearing Act" lyrics - COHEED AND CAMBRIA
He lives inside an existence that strays far beyond
The time perceived as normal, bends all limitation
A king among the binary waves, conjoined in our reality
Perceived to be null and void
While I wait for him to show me a sign
Or be destroyed, I employ
Go on, walk all over me
[Pre-Chorus:]
I'm a long, long way from giving up
Call me old fashioned, call me a fool
His eyes are shade from waking
A boy lost in the pattern
Over and over, repeat
[Chorus:]
How long have you waited here
For someone to touch you
For someone to hear you scream?
It's okay to be afraid
I'm here with you
Will we allow ourselves a cure before it does harm?
How long before the mind, it gets too weak
Before it fails to witness
Before it get's a fair chance to start?
[Pre-Chorus:]
I'm a long, long way from giving up
Call me old fashioned, call me a fool
His eyes are shade from waking
A boy lost in the pattern
Over and over, repeat
[Chorus:]
How long have you waited here
(How long have you waited, oh...)
For someone to touch you
For someone to hear you scream?
It's okay to be afraid
(It's okay...)
I'm here with you
[Bridge:]
A world in limbo, waiting, opening up
A world in limbo waiting to open for us
A world in limbo, waiting, opening up
A world in limbo, waiting...
A world in limbo, waiting, opening up
A world in limbo waiting to open for us
A world in limbo, waiting, opening up
A world in limbo, waiting
[Chorus:]
How long have you waited here
(How long have you waited, oh...)
For someone to touch you
For someone to hear you scream?
It's okay to be afraid
(It's okay...)
I'm here with you
[Outro:]
My love, we'll make it
My hands, you can leave or take them
We're strong enough to face our fears
Now watch time disappear, oh, oh
Time disappear, oh, oh
