Hour The Empty Streets Lyrics

takes me up so high
 alone atop a lush green hill
 the wind runs through my face my hair
 yes i can feel your presence still
 and the harder the rain eats the ground
 and the greyer the clouds swallow the sky
 and the closer i can get to tears
 without getting to the point of crying

 i stand with arms outstretched
 i stand with no regrets
 i'm feeling warm in the cold
 and i'm waiting to see where you descend
 i'm hungry for that burning hole

 and the more the colours are sucked from life
 and the more it seems like there is no time
 and the louder it al
and the less it makes me feel like trying
 and the more i've drunk the night before
 and the harder it is just to open my eyes
 and the drab and the bleak
 and no one speaks

 and the harder the rain chews the ground
 and the greyer the clouds swallow the sky
 and the more my head swims in tears
 without getting to the point of crying
 and the more the colours are drawn from life
 and the less it seems like you're bound by time
 and the louder it all and the empty streets
 and the closer i am to flying away

 away from the stagnant people
 content with going nowhere
 the specks of dust
 pretending to be someone
 they all make me feel
 as i walk with barefeet
 under blades of grass
 that apart from you striking me down
 and lighting up my sky
 all i could do to make the world seem brighter
 is to shut my eyes
