Solace Lyrics - Something Like Human - Fuel

Draw the shades and close my eyes 

Never want to see again 

I found the cost of courage high 

Sometimes hard to pay 

I hear the songs the sirens sing 

Calling on the shore for me 

So sell your soul and try to fly 

The tether still remains 

And all the finer things they laid upon my table 

Smiled as their hooks were slowly, sinking in 

Another pill I'm to consume 

To make me learn to feel again 

Is followed by another one 

To make me lose the same 

God if I could recognize 

The things to make me whole again 

And draw this air into my lungs 

Remember how to breathe 

For as the curtain rose I danced as I was able 

Felt my deception slowly, sinking in 

And so I turn to you my love 

For the solace that is there 

And offer any cherished thing 

For a slight reprieve 

I hoped that you might find me here 

I could learn to smile again 

And as a Balm for these wounds 

Take away the sting 

And as the band did play your body I did cradle 

I should have known that song would have to end
