Prolong a Stay 歌词

The sun’s coming down, and I’m still sleeping No crossed over words or lines In this list that I’m keeping To blame it on time, prime reason for falling Insist that it flies When it’s you who’s been crawling Tied ‘em down to prolong a stay If only for one more day Pushing them all away No shackle or iron chain Immune to this kind of strain Caved under a tide of pain Nails now long gone, red and ivory How I wish that you’d reach out for me Shadow rising, staring down at me calling A study of minds of those most persistent Cut someone deep enough to prove I existed A blink of an eye, there, now I missed it Fifteen turned twenty-nine Despite my attempts to resist it Tied ‘em down to prolong a stay If only for one more day Pushing them all away No shackle or iron chain Immune to this kind of strain Caved under a tide of pain
