A.F.I. - The Despair Factor lyrics

Album: The Art of Drowning (2000)

Along the path where the stream is talking
I breathe the mist & continue walking
The wood it whispers in a language of it´s own
As a sigh escaped my lips
I feel the light caress of fingertips
that steal away the breath & leave me on my own

Waiting by the stairs, Waiting, I despair
Waiting by the stairs, Waiting, by the...
(my whole life is a dark room,
one, big, dark, room)

Do I hear the hollow sound
footsteps resounding on this frozen ground
or the familiar disappointment of the echoes of my own?

Waiting by the stairs, Waiting, I despair
Waiting by the stairs, Waiting, by the stairs
Waiting by the stairs, Waiting, I despair
Waiting by the stairs, Waiting, by the stairs

For redeption, for election, for the times when i did say;
for the extacsy, for the champion day, whats the point of my fragility?

Somehow I ended up here in between,
where there´s always the comfort
of knowing I´ll never be seen
when I fall
when I fall
I wait for just one touch
and I fall
Weightless, endless, faithless, I´ll adore you.
A single touch before I fade.
Painless let me pass through.
Weightless, endless, faithless, I´ll adore you.
A single touch before I fade.
Painless let me pass through.
