The Silver String Song Lyrics

The Silver String by Saosin

[Verse 1] Who holds the silver string?
Lost me to staggered motion.
When you run away, whoever changes shape slowing oscillation,
I see you there.
[Chorus] Alternate the day (and let go),
Scream the last charade and let it be (and safeguard),
The fragment that anchors it all (into the wall).
Separate the wave (let it go),
Drown inside the shade and let it go (and safeguard),
The vision that anchors it all (into the wall).
[Verse 2] And I’m forgetting everything you said!
For you to bounce right back, pick up right where you left off,
When you run away, whoever took my place slowing oscillation.
I see you there.
(And how it seemed I should be reborn! )
[Chorus] Alternate the day (and let go),
Scream the last charade and let it be (and safeguard),
The fragment that anchors it all (into the wall).
Separate the wave (let it go),
Drown inside the shade and let it go (and safeguard),
The vision that anchors it all (into the wall).
[Bridge] In the outline there’s a test where it all gets settled in,
There’s no structure to my atrophy.
There’s a padlock on the chest where it all gets hidden in,
There’s no pattern to my apathy,
There’s impostors in my atrophy,
There’s no structure to my apathy.
[Outro] Alternate the day (and let go),
Scream the last charade and let it be (and safeguard),
The fragment that anchors it all (into the wall).
Separate the wave (let it go),
Drown inside the shade and let it go (and safeguard),
The vision that anchors it all (into the wall).
