lyrics

in limbo

He steps off the edge
and into the black.
Well he might come back home
or he might not come back.
Still he has to go
way down in that hole.
Though he might be destroyed
on the journey to get to his soul.
It cuts out the laugh
That hides the tears away
And he starts out a whistle
That keeps fears at bay
he’s got his face to the mirror and his back to the door
he doesn’t know what’s coming in
no
Or what for
between substance and shadow is no place to be
don’t you know
in limbo limbo limbo
In limbo

Breaking glass with head first
he falls
out of limbo
He’s heart too so
so coarse
With a match flame to heat
the Arctic track cold
as he comes eye to eye
with his journey
to get to his soul
between substance and shadow
is no place to be
don’t you know
In limbo limbo limbo in limbo
between substance and shadow
is no place to be
don’t you know
in limbo limbo limbo in limbo limbo
