Dredg - Matroskha

[iamthewiseguy]

I was looking down at you smiling up at me.
For once I held you tight, but shadow hands grabbed at me.
Your head was in the clouds, now those clouds are in your head.
It's when you needed me, so I listened to what you said.

Look another year went by,
They keep passing by.
But damn I didn't even die.
To hold it so I've grown,
I fought time but lost.

It was love like a callas, you're scarred enough to be.
Tough and immune, your body adapts, you see.
To all above my head, and all below my feet.
No that's one freedom you'll never take from me.

Look another year went by,
They keep passing by.
But damn I didn't even die.
To hold it so I've grown,
I fought time but lost.

To criticize and judge, how did I end up here?
With these standards I'm forced to love, make me disappear.

Hold tight, hold tight.

To criticize and judge, how did I end up here?
With these standards I'm forced to love, make me disappear.
To criticize and judge, how did I end up here?
With these standards I'm forced to love make me disappear.

Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight, hold tight.
Look another year went by.
Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight, hold tight.
