Dredg - Matroska (The Ornament) lyrics

I was looking down at you smiling up at me For once I held you tight, but shadowed hands grabbed at me You're head was in the clouds, now those clouds are in your head That's when you needed me, so I listened to want you said Look another year went by, They keep passing by, God damn I didn't even die, To old and slow I've grown, I fought time but lost It was love like a callas you scarred enough to be Tough and immune, your body adapts you see To all above my head, and all below my feet No that's one freedom you'll never take from me Look another year went by, They keep passing by, God damn I didn't even die, Too old and slow I've grown, I fought time but lost To criticize and judge, how did I end up here, With these standards I'm supposed to love, make me disappear. Hold tight, hold tight To criticize and judge, how did I end up here, With these standards I'm supposed to love, make me disappear. To criticize and judge, how did I end up here, With these standards I'm supposed to love make me disappear. Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight, hold tight Look another year went by Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight, hold tight
