also eden - the enemy within lyrics

Loading...

up late again, i go downstairs
and put the morning kettle on
just a day like any other, with no warning of the coming storm

come back upstairs, i see you in the early light
your ‘morning’ smile still sleepy
as you wash away the night

we saw ourselves this way, forever young and strong
now the mirror cracked, we see so clearly,
see that we were wrong

so here’s where we begin
with a love of those our love surrounds
and the enemy, the enemy within

lying where i fall, i feel so scared i hardly breath
i can feel your rear, i feel your tears
i feel you reaching out to me

clinging on, i want so much for this to go away
surely this can’t happen here
on such a very ordinary day?

we found ourselves this way
together, holding on
to the splinters of the visions
that we’d built our lives upon

so here’s where we begin
with a love of those our love surrounds
and the enemy, the enemy within

sleep now, you can sleep now
there’s no need to be afraid
we’re here to help
we can take away the pain
just let it slip away
we know it hurts, just let it go

and after all, and in the end there’s always us

wake up! wake up! you must fight this sleep
don’t slip away, we need you here
you’re sinking way too deep
remember all the plans we had,
the things we said we’d do
wake up! wake up!
i know it hurts, but please don’t go

and after all, and in the end, there’s only us
there’s only us, remember us …

you squeeze my hand, to my surprise i find
i’m still here!
this is no miracle, no slick romance
this is real
a mind made up, no going back alone
we hold our breath, it’s nearly time
and silently i pray that it’s not mine!
i pray that it’s not mine

when i was a young man, dreaming as a young man dreams
i imagined breaking hearts, a hero in my own mind
this is where it ends, those young man’s fancies
if this is growing up, we must be sooo old now!

now the stage is set and the theatre’s open
helpless as an infant, wheel me on
everything i thought i knew blown out like cobwebs
held only by the strength in you, it’s our time now!
our time

so this is where the chapter ends
and closer now than ever were
taking stock of what we have
and never take for granted that
without the strength, without the love
there wouldn’t be a now at all
i would have fallen, given in
laid down before the enemy within
