Short Fuses Burn Long Bridges

Just close your eyes when it's too far to see
And only take the things that you will need
The dust is thick, the air is hard to breathe
The sunshine's gray through all the broken trees

And it's so far
It's so far away
And it's so far
It's so far away

Hold your temper, what we need
Is to find another way
Another way to hold the way

Turn on the gas and close the windows tight
I need to find a way to sleep tonight
If tomorrow never comes, then that's just fine
Because at least I won't be wasting time

Half-awake and half-alive
I stumble to the flowing light
These things that call me from inside
They crush my faith in going blind

He sings stories far in my mind (Call my name, don't fall away)
A slow disgrace, another time (Don't be scared, these things we fear)
Another day, another year (Stay awake, don't fall asleep)
I don't think I can help it (Try and hear forever)

Hold your temper, what we need
Is to find another way
Another way to hold the way

It's not too late (For things today)
It's not too long (For us to wait)
It's not too hard (To hold your breath)
I'm not strong to keep lying to myself
