Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was met on the road
By a face I once knew
Shapeless was his frame
And his colors were few
We went out for a time
But his sentence is in
Climbing into the eye
Where the numbers begin
[Verse 2]
Go back down, don't touch the ground
Go back down, don't touch the ground
Go back down, don't touch the ground
Go back down, don't touch the ground
[Verse 3]
I was met on the road
By a face that was mine
Echoed chambers and spoke
With a damn wasted mind
You can never go home
If you were never shown
Spots on the irises bleed
Where the numbers were born
[Verse 4]
Go back down, don't touch the ground
Go back down, don't touch the ground
Go back down, don't touch the ground
Go back down, don't touch the ground
