Left a Slide

Pattern doesn't match

Pictures fall from their base

Pulling out of the race

Put up the red flag

Matters close at hand

Cross over the land

You get so diffused

You wanna kiss the ground

Leave no sound

Take it up next year

Chalk it up to remember

Wasted lonely fever

The way we've tried

Left a slide into harm's way

Enough concern to ride it out

It's no surprise that it's a long slow fade

Let it rest on past ages and signs

Pull the stops out

Let it unwind

It's reaching

And finding nothing

Weighted down one dale below the hill

Minefield's the word from the start

Watching out for the worst

Never clear 'til it hurts

Call it off make amends

This life burns down

From both ends

The way we've tried

Left a slide into harm's way

Enough concern to ride it out

It's no surprise that it's a long slow fade

Let it rest on past ages and signs

Pull the stops out

Let it unwind

Enough concern to ride it out

It's no surprise that it's a long slow fade
