lyrics

The dust settles on the ground * That’s all that’s been left since you’ve been around * I’m thinking it’s time to give up soon * So I’m stuck as the dust falls with open wounds * And there’s one thing on my mind * And I’m falling far behind * And I can’t see what’s in front of me * And there’s one thing on the line * And these thoughts they make me blind * And it’s not clear * I guess the dust just picks up and settles here * Just picks up and settles here * It’s late in the afternoon * The sun is high, the sky is blue * You speak, I whisper things to you * If only you knew the things that I’ve been through * And there’s one thing on my mind * And I’m falling far behind * And I can’t see what’s in front of me * And there’s one thing on the line * And these thoughts they make me blind * And it’s not clear * I guess the dust just picks up and settles here * Just picks up and settles here * I guess it’s enough to know that you’re nothing more than some dust I must give up, the life I had * Reach for the hand that pulls you further under* And there’s one thing on my mind * And I’m falling far behind * And I can’t see what’s in front of me * And there’s one thing on the line * And these thoughts they make me blind * And it’s not clear * I guess the dust just picks up and settles here
