Voice Of a Friend

Light the fire in this castle
Watch it burn into a glow
By the river fear of quite sincere
Theres a draw bridge life support
Theres a plank well have to crawl upon
But dare not look below
Where the water scene is crystal clean
Where the clouds are raining snow

Hush, hush, baby
Theres a lot of other ways to choke
Were in the freak show now
And were dealing with a mind of its own
When too many worlds collide
Id like to think it would be good if we talked
I ask you to not leave my side
I cant man
This is quicksand alone

So I ask you thru the voice of a friend
Why dont you stay with me

Were a submarine submerging
Simply smiling at the earth
Were sending roses to the loved ones
Who had a hand in our rebirth
But still another day ill cling to you
For faint directions home
Where we all will sit with open arms
To block the rocks weve thrown

Hush, hush, baby
Theres a lot of other ways to choke
Were in the freak show now
And were dealing with a mind of its own
When too many worlds collide
Id like to think it would be good if we talk
I ask you to not leave my side I cant man
This is quicksand alone

So I ask you thru the voice of a friend
Why dont you stay with me?
I ask you thru the voice of a friend
Why dont you stay with me?
Stay with me
