Slipped Away

You're a soul with no religion There's ice in your embrace In your dance of indecision I see the anger in your face A little drink to help my vision A little something for the pain There's no drug for my condition There's no sweetness in the taste Tell me where the ride's gonna lead you Do I have to pay to be your friend? There's nothing left to say When you slipped away I can see you fading fast I won't let you take me When you slipped away I can see your burning stare Nothing's gonna shake me As you slip away You're a world of blind ambition Staring through the looking glass You will meet your own collision When your conscience comes to ask Steal the love from those around you Help yourself to everything Take the shelter that surrounds you It leaves you standing in the rain Tell me if the money can heal you Do I have to pray to make it end? There's nothing left to say When you slipped away I can see you fading fast I won't let you take me When you slipped away I can see your burning stare Nothing's gonna shake me As you slip away (Instrumental brake) When you slipped away I can see your burning stare Nothing's gonna shake me As you slip away I can see you fading fast I won't let you take me I can see your burning stare Nothing's gonna shake me As you slip away
