Slip Away

[Verse 1]

Born of the water

Born of the flame

This life is a monster

Don't you know its name?

The house, it is wooden

The house, it is stone

The proud broken-hearted

And close to the bone

Once you had a nightmare

And then it came to pass

Gray as the sky in the morning

Green as the grass coverin' a grave

[Bridge]

Just a slip away

Just a slip away

Just a slip away

[Verse 2]

Down to the water

Drawn to the flame

This life will leave you crippled

Don't you know the game?

Once you woke up choking

But then you held it down

Dry as the sand in the desert

Black as the clouds coverin' the sun

[Guitar Solo]
