Lyrics

I have come curiously close to the end, though Beneath my self-indulgent pitiful hole Defeated, I concede and move closer I may find comfort here I may find peace within the emptiness How pitiful It's calling me (calling me) It's calling me (calling me) It's calling me (calling me) It's calling me And in my darkest moment, fetal and weeping The moon tells me a secret, a confidant As full and bright as I am This light is not my own and A million light reflections pass over me The source is bright and endless She resuscitates the hopeless Without her, we are lifeless satellites drifting And as I pull my head out, I am without one doubt Don't want to be down here serving my narcissism, I Must crucify the ego before it's far too late I pray the light lifts me out Before I pine away (pine away) Before I pine away (pine away) Before I pine away (pine away) Before I pine away So crucify the ego, before it's far too late And leave behind this place so negative and blind and cynical And you will come to find that we are all one mind Capable of all that's imagined and all conceivable So let the light touch you, so that the words spill through And let the past break through, bringing out our hope and reason Before we pine away (pine away) Before we pine away (pine away) Before we pine away (pine away) Before we pine away
