"What I Saw" lyrics

"What I Saw"

There's one room
There's one light
There's one night
In the fire
In the pain
In the wire
This from me
This one lie
That seems right
Time can't climb
It can't be
It can't see

I see to be right
I fall down tonight
I go to hell to be what I sell
Falling again is such a welcome end
Can the end of today be more than tonight
Echoes of these far reaching sights
Stuck with the pain of knowing you should have tried

Give me your hands
Give me your hands
Give me your hands
And we'll never die
We'll never die, oh

This love song
It sits wrong
It means jack
The time's right to be wrong
All night long
I feel good
I feel so far away
This is mine
It could be any day

I saw what I saw
I call up a man
Distance is what gets me right in
I had a hand in everyone losing their place
Never must stop
It's stealing my heart
A moment to squeeze begging on its knees
I know I'll never be right beyond tonight

Give me your hands
Give me your hands
And we'll never die
We'll never die
Give me your hands
Give me your hands
Give me your hands
And we'll never die
We'll never die
