gun-shy

The sky keeps staring at me
 Frozen in my tracks (nothing else to see)
 And when I move my face left
 You're always standing there (a shadow I can't see)
 And even then, I can't trace
 You're walking away
 ♪
 I put my ears to the ground
 Always pushing down (nothing I can hear)
 I found the worst half in me
 I'm cut-off at the knees (can't even take a stand)
 Against your words and beliefs
 We didn't want to freeze
 (All of the years, leaving me here, gun-shy)
 I don't want to say it all again (taking the pain)
 (Losing my aim) I never seem to see (and why)
 Do I always feel it all the same? (Haven't we changed?)
 (Story to blame?) The blisters in my eyes (recite)
 A guide that has only led me stray (all of my wrongs)
 (You know it's wrong) and even as I limp (you smile)
 ♪
 The cold keeps tearing at me
 Slowing down my blood (unable to speak)
 I left my mind long ago
 Choosing something false (always letting go)
 And when I try to face you
 You're walking away
