lyrics:
just close your eyes and speak
say what we both know is inside you
if you want i'll keep so much buried deep
wake up its gone. what made you fall away?
what came undone? what made you fall away?
we were so true
we were pure
you saw how my heart was full of hurt
i held you to stop breaking down around me
i tried, but i was weak.
just close your eyes and speak
wake up its gone. what made you fall away?
what came undone? what made you fall away?
feelings i keep. buried so deep. you fell from me
you breathed so deep. you loved so deep
i built all these walls to keep you
to keep you to keep you
to keep you close
welp, those are all the riffs needed to pull this song off. there are numerous lead overdubs (mostly octaves) which i just frankly don't feel like messing with!
