lyrics

We waited in the garden
For the lights to come
Flying in the old boat
Miles over the land
And we were alone in the rain
With a cross and a strip and a gun and a chain
And the sky started falling apart
And the mountains melted like ice
And the rain became red overhead

Sometimes we can't tell the difference
Between light and dark
Between sky and sea
Between order, chaos
Between you and me
Cause truth be told
Cause truth be told
They’re not so different to me
With the end walking so near, it's such a pleasure to go for a walk

These days the city feels like
Rusty memories
The woods guard what is left as
The city claims the rest
And every piece of the puzzle
Is drifting so quickly it's vanishing out of my sight
If I buried my eyes
They wouldn't be hurt by the light

And we're so far from home
So lost in this hole
Screaming in the dark
Looking for our soul
