Waves of Velvet (Kill The Lights)

from The Fall by Passing Sirens

about

This is the sixth track from Passing Sirens' EP: The Fall.
This song is written about the helplessness of opiate addiction.

lyrics

Hello my only
Love you forever
Hold me down, I just can't sit still
As waves of velvet
Roll in over me
I grip the chair and I'm thrown right back into nil

[KILL THE LIGHTS]
And kill everything else I thought it meant to me
[KILL THE LIGHTS]
And kill these ambitions of this callow man I see

I've got a pulse and
I've got a signal
I've two hands but they're trembling now
You said you'd show me
A path enlightened
You said you'd show me the fear of God and so how?

[KILL THE LIGHTS]
And kill everything else I thought it meant to me
[KILL THE LIGHTS]
And kill these ambitions of this callow man I see

[FIRE], [FIRE]
At my sacrafice it ignites the saw in the sand
[FIRE], [FIRE]
No one ever expects you to watch it all slip through your hands
