Slip Away

Tell me about your revelation
What did it take for you to blame yourself?
There is no communication
Sooner or later better watch your health
Why have you been so temperamental?
I see that you suffer through demented eyes
Wanted to be experimental
It's all in the head, you wanna improvise
Don't wanna wait, you can't recall
Don't you relate, oh anymore
Warm is the gun, the shadows fall
Don't wanna wait
Now who's the one who will protect you
You're losin' your grip and you are left to crawl
You need someone who will direct you
You're out on the edge and you begin to fall
Don't wanna wait, you can't recall
Don't you relate, oh anymore
Warm is the gun, the shadows fall
Don't wanna wait
Slip away, won't you make me understand
Slip away, how does it feel, how does it feel
Slip away, tell me 'bout your master plan
Slip away, how does it feel, how does it feel
Tell me about your revelation
What did it take for you to blame yourself?
There is no communication
Sooner or later better watch your health
Don't wanna wait, you can't recall
Don't you relate, oh anymore
Warm is the gun, the shadows fall
Don't wanna wait
Slip away, won't you make me understand
Slip away, how does it feel, how does it feel
Slip away, tell me 'bout your master plan
Slip away, how does it feel, how does it feel
I don't want to know you
You couldn't get much colder
So why do you think I'd follow
And you live in sorrow
Slip away, won't you make me understand
Slip away, how does it feel
Slip away, you gotta tell me 'bout your master plan
Slip away, how does it feel, how does it
