On The Threshold Of Eternitity

I find it odd that so every lyric website I have found has this song totally wrong. This might have a few mistakes but it is closer to what anybody else has posted( makes more sense too).

Eternity is pressed against my eyelids
A brittle fist that I cannot avoid
And though each finger's grip has been relentless
The moments, they just keep on slipping by

And I am now aware that I
am and always have been at this moment
sadly sitting by the fire and blue, waiting for you
And though I've been expecting,
I have never quite accepted

That the fire will suddenly go out
The hands will fall away
The pain will peel
The trees will stay this way 
'Cause I'm scared that there's no answer
'Cause I'm scared that there’s no truth
In this life of mine, there is only time,
The illusion of which is gone

All my words are spread across the canvas
No one seems to see the things I say
And though these eyes were once those of an artist,
Failure has relieved me of a face
And I am now aware that I am only the brush strokes
On the headstone of a man that never lived
And this, oh this, is his, life that I have failed in
And I hope to be forgiven when

The fire will suddenly go out
The hands will fall away
The pain will peel
The trees will stay this way
'Cause I'm scared that there's no answer
'Cause I'm scared that there’s no truth
In this life of mine, there is only time,
The illusion of which is gone

So what is left waiting to be the man
I can’t get myself to be
And just sadly sit with your eyes half-closed
(Can't make out this line either)

We got a lot to say
Oh, we got a lot to do
The boys are in the street
They just want to do what they want
And we don't care
Oh, no, we don't care at all

It might be "sadly sway" instead of "stay this way", but I think i'm right. Its very hard to tell the way he sings it, but I hear an "is" as in "this" right before the stay or sway, not the "ly" that would be there with "sadly." I wish I could verify this with legitimate lyrics from the actual band though......
