Deus Ex Machina (the Shadow Song)

The curtains slice the rays of sun
That sneak into my bedroom
Like bars on my wall
Salt water saturates
The carpet under me
I haven't got much sleep at all

And when the morning calls
I'm calling back to her

We spent our nights out watching shadows walking
I can't tell if I've become one too

I let myself go numb
It only made thing worse

Splitting my time between shadows and light

Unaware of the difference
The trumpets still ringing in my head
Crunch sand between my teeth
Sandpaper tongues can't speak
Don't think ill ever speak again

And when the morning calls
I'm calling back to her

We spent our nights out watching shadows walking
I can't tell if I've become one too

Don't let yourself go numb
It only made things worse
