Taper

Faint scars on my body
Fragments of where I've been
Sparse echoes from heartbeats
That still beat within
Sometimes my presence won't hold
I feel like I can't breathe
Feels like I've lost control

'Cause my heart is too old
While my soul is too young
It's getting harder and harder
And I can't hold out much longer

Dark skies fell right on me
Will I ever spread my wings?
Dark skies and dark waters
I need to feel free from sin
And when the day comes to close
I forgot how to swim
I've lost control

'Cause my heart is too old
Whilе my soul is too young
And I needed control
Just how fast this goes
I feel this heart's too cold
Yеt the world is much colder
And it's getting harder
I can't hold on much longer

I never felt like I stepped out of the night and
Where you watching me fight all of this?
Because we never felt like we were invited
You say you never knew of this
And I never thought I cried as rivers
For you or for me
Never

'Cause my heart is too old
While my soul is too young
And I needed control
Just how fast this goes
I feel this heart's too cold
Yet the world is much colder
And it's getting harder
I can't hold on much longer
