Christopher Elam - Dance Lyrics

As each day dies
Alone and terrified
A lucid coma mind
Gone like a coin in a well
The evening glow
Begins to pull like an undertow
And the moonlight bleeds onto a new blank page

I'm packing the poison thoughts away
For the long night
To dance to the ticking of the clocks

If I could choose
I know I'd wear more attractive blues
And ride a friend back home
To the top of the hill
But I wear an endless lull
And it's becoming unbearable
And my hallucinations kill

I'm packing the poison thoughts away
For the long night
Pretending that everything's OK
And I'm alright
Because the truth always remains
Safe behind a lie
We dance to the ticking of the clocks

Empty shelves and millionaire wells
That's the most told joke in hell
And this one's been on me

So I'm packing the poison thoughts away
For the long night
Pretending that where I am is safe
And I'm alright
Letting the hands tangle the strings
Is as good as waving goodbye
We dance to the ticking of...
