Coheed and Cambria
A Disappearing Act
[Verse 1]
He lives inside an existence
That strays far beyond
The time perceived as normal
Bends all limitation
A king among the binary waves, conjoined in our reality
Perceived to be null and void
While I wait for him to show me a sign
Or be destroyed, I implore
"Go on, walk all over me"
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm a long, long way from giving up
Call me old-fashioned, call me a fool
His eyes a shade from waking up
A boy lost in the pattern, over and over, repeat
[Chorus]
How long have you waitеd here
For someonе to touch you, for someone to hear you scream?
It's okay to be afraid
I'm here with you
[Verse 2]
Will we allow ourselves a cure
Before it does harm?
How long before the mind, it gets too weak?
Before it fails to witness, before it gets a fair chance to start?
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm a long, long way from giving up
Call me old-fashioned, call me a fool
His eyes a shade from waking up
A boy lost in the pattern, over and over, repeat
[Chorus]
How long have you waited here
(How long have you waited? Oh)
For someone to touch you, for someone to hear you scream?
It's okay to be afraid
(It's okay)
I'm here with you
[Bridge]
A world in limbo, waiting, opening up
A world in limbo waiting to open for us
A world in limbo, waiting, opening up
A world in limbo, waiting
A world in limbo, waiting, opening up
A world in limbo waiting to open for us
A world in limbo, waiting, opening up
A world in limbo, waiting
[Chorus]
How long have you waited here
(How long have you waited? Oh)
For someone to touch you, for someone to hear you scream?
It's okay to be afraid
(It's okay)
I'm here with you
[Outro]
My love, we'll make it
My hands, you can leave or take them
We're strong enough to face our fears
Now watch time disappear, oh, oh
Time disappear, oh, oh
