Faded and waiting
Watching the tide come undone
But I'm still pacing it
Staying outside of the maelstrom
Chaos makes way
For a crazy parade in the street
But I'm steering clear
Keeping my eyes on my feet

Typhoons sweeping through
Separate me from you on the shore
Drifting and desperate
To try and relocate the floor
Maybe if you came along
I could face this frenzy head on
But you missing is messing with me
So I'm soldiering on

Trying to keep my feet on the floor
Is like holding your breath
While the room fills with smoke
Surrounded by poison
Appears so enticing
Tempted to taste it
But trying to fight it
I'll drown in temptation
Before i submit to
Toxic sensations
They'll all be mine soon
They can be yours too
Just follow me into the fire
I'll take you higher
Submit to desire
There's no need to be cautious
This is the real thing
This time it's honest

Suddenly the storm is lifted
Levitated
Suspended while we're faded
Such a pretty view
From underneath all the confusion
The storm was an illusion
But you calmed the coming crashes
Of the waves before collapsing
I'm afraid of what might happen
When you leave and don't come back again.
