"Slip Away" lyrics

"Slip Away"

Falling, falling, falling in unfamiliar space
'Cause I was drenched in you before I even knew your name
Fading, fading, fading with the breath you take
See your southern heart hiding behind a city face

Drowning out the fires
As I'm lying here awake
I can feel you slip away
Like I knew you would

Don't you leave me in this silence
When you've seen all my mistakes
Now I'm looking for escapes
Like I knew I would

Stalling, stalling, stalling till I take the blame
Yeah, I lied to you like a promise on New Year's Day
You saw me, saw me, saw me, I got nowhere to hide
Yeah, the worst of me is racing all around your mind

Drowning out the fires
As I'm lying here awake
I can feel you slip away
Like I knew you would

Don't you leave me in this silence
When you've seen all my mistakes
Now I'm looking for escapes
Like I knew I would

Slip away, slip away, slip away
I'll slip away, slip away, slip away

Drowning out the fires
As I'm lying here awake
I can feel you slip away
Like I knew you would

Don't you leave me in this silence
When you've seen all my mistakes
Now I'm looking for escapes
Like I knew I would

I can feel you slip away like I knew you would
