Fickle Gods - The Kite String Tangle

All of my pains fall away

While I fade

I’m just trying to do my best

And keep my worst from you

And I can tell

You’re saying all the right things

As your heart swings

Thirty stories high

On the mezzanine

I feel us flickering

I can’t close my eyes 'til it’s over

Seeing you and him getting closer

How did it get like this

I’m a bigger man than he is

Your smile grows while mine is fading

Words you’re saying leave my heart racing

How did it get like this

I’m a bigger man than he is

I’m a bigger man than he is

I’m a bigger man than he is

It’s clear as day

That you’re drifting away

There’s no escape

I’m stuck watching

This mistake

That you’re about to make

While fickle gods

Play their games

I feel the same

Nothing’s changed

Sometimes the world

Just gets in the way

I can’t close my eyes 'til it’s over

Seeing you and him getting closer

How did it get like this

I’m a bigger man than he is

Your smile grows while mine is fading

Words you’re saying leave my heart racing

How did it get like this

I’m a bigger man than he is

I’m a bigger man than he is

I’m a bigger man than he is

I’m a bigger man than he is

All of my pains fall away

While I fade

I’m just trying to do my best

And keep my worst from you
