lyrics

So hit the brakes, but you won't slow down in time.
The wheels are spinning, and burning to the core and trying to stop what's already begun will be the hardest thing you'll do.
I am the deer caught in your headlights in the road with no expression on my face.
I've never been so calm to be this scared, with my head in my hands and my feet in the air.
Seconds from the ground, my eyes are blinded from the light at the end of this whirlwind tunnel.
I've never been so calm to be this scared.
My eyes see they through yours as your head hits the dash, and this wave of destruction slips past in my arms,
in my legs, in my heart, in my mind all I know is that I wanted this.
All I know is that I wanted this.
To be two as one, for as long as I exist, and to live with the knowledge you know I persist to be the one on your mind when everything hits,
and to be the pieces that you pick up when I can't stand alone.
You hid in these pines for as far as I recall, but the night that I saw the light was the best I've had.
You came through my life like a breath of fresh air, or a flash in the sky. I'll hit the ground, and hope I'm still running.
My eyes see they through yours as your head hits the dash, and this wave of destruction slips past in my arms, in my legs, in my heart, in my mind.
So hit the brakes, but you won't slow down in time.
The wheels are spinning, and burning to the core.

Castle in the Clouds
by The Wise Man's Fear

supported by 4 fans who also own “Four Ninety-Five”

Realistically, I should have bought this album after the first 100 scrobbles of In Reach (Out of Touch), but it's never too late to do the right thing. This has a different atmosphere (and story) than The Lost City, but it's just as good and just as melodic. porcelainheart-

2012 was a great year. Still come back to this EP quite often, pure nostalgia for my youth. Thanks for the memories, Crooks. Matthew Hamill
