Album: Empty Cities
Falling down around me come pieces of a broken night
I held her hand as she slipped into the light
What have I done? It looked like fun
But she ain't breathing
Now she won't let me leave
Within a whisper we both wait for her faith to cleanse
I lost control; one moment is all it takes
Down by the lake line there's a body of such innocence
Turn out the stars!
(She's sleeping)
With the light in my eyes
I struggle to see where the screams are coming from
(Coming from)
I stand up, I take ten steps north
I dig where I still feel her warmth
Her trembling face
(I tried so hard to forget you)
With sin or grace
(Forget and try to let go)
The lights are drowning everything as the stars begin 'the cry'
Trapped inside a comatose
Up by the oak tree swing there's a carving I bled to leave
She woke up, she woke up
I, alone whisper
This is it!
(The ship goes down, the lights go out)
Wake up, don't forget it's not over
Wake up, don't forget you're still haunted
(Death will hunt you down)
Within a whisper we both wait for her faith to cleanse
I lost control; one moment is all it takes
Down by the lake line there's a body of such decadence
The earth shook
Within a whisper, within a whisper
Lights out versus embers running south
