Gone So Long

[Verse 1:]
Count mistakes on your fingers and toes
Your chances are running out
Go a night to where you were when you started without knowing how
Impatience and misfortune excel inside me
You were hiding in the shadow of who you used to be.

[Chorus:]
Do you count down the hours
Like I count your wilting flowers.

[Verse 2:]
Your subconscious is a guilty child starved out of his mind
Punching a ceiling out of time with his own [claws?]
I've seen you in the best light
We thrive in the night
We [need?] a lifetime full of innocence
Against the darkest of times.

[Chorus:]
Do you count down the hours
Like I count your wilting flowers.

[Bridge:]
Where have you gone
I've been lost so long
Where have you gone
I've been lost so long.

[Chorus:]
Do you count down the hours
Like I count your wilting flowers.
