Irreversible

Irreversible A sequence of events Unfolding in reverse A sting better stimulated When revealing tragedy first Reverse perception reversing imperfection Be aware of the darkness that lies Beneath the surface of contrived pleasantries Be aware so as to always hold tighter speak softer There is no failsafe So now you know There is no failsafe So cut ties With the dead weight that is dragging you below Pull me closer When silence consumes you, I'll speak words softer Sinking slower, we stimulate the sting Restrain I'm not giving up I'm giving in to the touch Of every inch of your sea salt skin But you set me ablaze And spread me out with waves in the ocean With every trace of doubt Black me out Don't stimulate the sting Don't let the wrong choices repeat themselves Don't stimulate the sting of irreversible emptiness Pull me in close Pull me in close It's in the empty spaces That we find ourselves It's in the empty spaces Reaching out and grasping Searching for what we need to find who we are (Who we are) There is no failsafe It's what keeps me hanging on To what you are to me You're what keeps me hanging on I'm not giving up, I'm giving in So let's begin again (Let's begin again) Pull me closer When silence consumes you, I'll speak words softer Sinking slower, we stimulate the sting Restrain Pulling you closer 'cause after all, you're pulling back farther And we're sinking slower We stimulate the sting Restrain Don't turn your back on her Let her look you right in the eyes, you coward Don't stimulate the sting Don't let the wrong choices repeat themselves Don't stimulate the sting of irreversible emptiness --- Irreversible - Erra
