Wine & Water

You're missing the signs Because it's not what you're looking for Faith is no bargain Cheaply bought off of trickster hands The way of the shark Is a middle way And the end of the road Is a sharp mouth of knives That thirsts for the clenching Everything I need Everything I touch Turns to quicksand The harder I try, I try so hard It slips right through my fingers Belief is a virtue Which no conjurer Can fable for idle ears (Can fable) The path of the unfailing is a lion's den For the simple-hearted In the end It is the gap of the serpent That burrows in the deep Everything I need Everything I touch Turns to quicksand The harder I try, I try so hard It slips right through my fingers I am the awaited burst With the sun in my back Burning your wounds And igniting mine I am wine to your water No matter how much You pour the dilution It won't whitewash my wrong My wrong I am the awaited burst With the sun in my back Burning your wounds And igniting mine Clash and collide Clash and collide Clash and collide Clash and collide Clash and collide Clash and collide The harder I try, I try so hard Everything I need Everything I touch Turns to quicksand The harder I try, I try so hard It slips right through my fingers
