Grinning Like A Slit Lyrics - Moment You Realize You're Going To Fall - Black Light Burns

You can look to the mountain 

You can talk to the dead 

You can run to the city lights 

But it's all in your head 

You can look to a stranger 

But all you'll find is a wall 

You can wish all you want 

But no one answers at all 

Goodbyes 

They are flies 

That rise from shit 

And I was skinning 

A new beginning 

While you were grinning 

Like a slit 

You can try not to cry out 

As you wake in the night 

You can stare at the blackness 

But it's taken your sight 

You imagine a face there 

That you can almost touch 

You can reach all you want 

But it's only a crutch 

Goodbyes 

They are flies 

That rise from shit 

And I was skinning 

A new beginning 

While you were grinning 

Like a slit 

Where are you now? 

Where is the crowd? 

These sleeping streets 

Are speaking aloud 

And I couldn't recall 

The feeling at all 

The moment I realized I was going to fall
