Devin Townsend
A Paradox with Flies
[Verse 1]
These solemn words whispered in a haze
Could you even see me standing there?
All wrapped up in insecurities
That won't stop spilling out all over me
[Chorus]
And in your eyes, I see so much more
Than that place you always go back to
You can pull yourself away from
That face that constantly haunts you
[Verse 2]
A graceful approach that you carry on
And carry yourself in such a way
That could never be recreated
[Chorus]
And in your eyes, I see so much more
Than that place you always go back to
You can pull yourself away from
That face that constantly haunts you
[Verse 3]
We're in too deep, go back to sleep
If this feels too synthetic, then it's all been a dream
Calling on our contracts
Controlled, contained under pressure
We're in too deep, go back to sleep
If this feels too synthetic, then it's all been a dream
[Outro Chorus]
So fall forward into me and let it all pour out
You owe this to yourself and there's only one way out
And in your eyes, I see so much more
Than that place you always go back to
You can pull yourself away from
That face that constantly haunts you
So rest your head and close your eyes
Just one more step till we're over the edge
