From Where I Stand - Everon

You’ve been my last outpost

Before the wild open sea

Suddenly promising rescue when I

Was just about to give in

But could it be, could it be

I just fooled myself

I’ve been your last wall of defense

Against the truth flooding in

You were dying of thirst and so gladly you drank

When I offered you poison for wine

But could it be, could it be

You just fooled yourself

From where I stand

It all seems pretty clear

From where I stand

There is not much left but fear

Not much left but fear…

Of being alone once again

So we close our eyes and count slowly to ten

Giving truth time enough to get out of our sight

And when we seek we make sure we don’t find

If ignorance was really bliss

Then the world’s seen no happier couple than this

You and I struggling to not get too close

While our hearts are so firmly entwined

We’re a match made in heaven

For a life down in hell

A broken promise to ease each other’s pain

A cure failing to deliver relief

So could it be, could it be

We just fooled ourselves

From where I stand

It all seems pretty clear

From where I stand

There is not much left but fear

Not much left but fear…

Of being alone once again

So we close our eyes and count slowly to ten

Giving truth time enough to get out of our sight

And when we seek we make sure we don’t find

If ignorance was really bliss

Then the world’s seen no happier couple than this

You and I struggling to not get too close

While our hearts are so firmly entwined

So we are watching our world slowly turn into grey

While fear drives its claws

Deeper into our flesh with every new day

From where I stand

It all seems pretty clear

From where I stand

There is not much left but fear

Not much left but fear…

Of being alone once again

So we close our eyes and count slowly to ten

Giving truth time enough to get out of our sight

And when we seek we make sure we don’t find

If ignorance was really bliss

Then the world’s seen no happier couple than this

You and I struggling to not get too close

While our hearts are so firmly entwined

So we are watching our world slowly turn into grey
