Steal You Away
Hybrid Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Foolish
Makes no sense to me
Wasteful
Where fear breeds deceit
Bullets, screaming
From out of nowhere
And tanks roam the streets
It steals you away
Only denied
It steals you away
From being alive

Grazed
Calling out our names
Bleeding hearts that feel no shame
Take the burden
Lay down the blame
The situation's changed

It steals you away
Only denied
It steals you away
From being alive





It steals you away

Miażdży mnie zadumą, unosi eteryczną nadzieją, chwyta drganiem. Wspaniała.
