"A Thousand Days Before" lyrics

"A Thousand Days Before"

Life a thousand days ago
Hours sinking in a hole
Try to melt into the walls
Now I am here inside the bowl

Here in the cold
Where no one stands behind me

Now a thousand days have gone again
Like the sun and moon at war
And give or take a thousand more

Here in the cold
Where no one stays behind me
I'll be on my own side
You know where to find me
You know where to find me

Here in the cold
Where no one stays beside me
I'll be on my own side
You know where to find me
You know where to find me

Born with a thousand little holes
And a tear to fill up every one
A thousand to ignore
I'll be on my own side
I'll be on my own side
I'll be on my own side
