seven years wash up behind me
and I'm wondering what the time is
it's a question of perception
and I don't want you with hurt
there's an old man in the corner
in his sunk and withered features
see reflections of my future
will you join me there

I'm here to find the watershed (I can run away)
to shake the past away (I can run away)
to drown me in a pool of tears (I can run away)
and start another day (I can run away)

and now I've swallowed down the poison
sister will you still believe me
will you feed me down the serum
will you follow me

a secret haunts my favourite place
so I cut down
