We’re leaving today After dust-ridden shutters close And heartbeats they rush Then to cease in your embrace
These scars through-out the night Left no more fighting in us No tears to fill the void In a place even devils fled
The wretched tongues Wording their pain onto me Until even tide enters There's no place out of here
For grace to lift me up every molecule Whispered to make peace with this unreality I felt I was slipping downwards Into darkness And in darkness I stayed Until sadness closed its eyes
Ships passing in the silvery night Carrying this vicious, benevolent heart And in sadness we part In the dark of you, in the dark of me
Release these hearts from the turmoil
Tired and cold A tale since eons of old So elusive this intemperance of escape So much has fallen and is falling still Into the hands of the ever maddening crowd
So we’re leaving today As dust-ridden shutters close To site that glimmer of hope And breathe, if only for a while
These stars that turned the tide Left no more fighting in us No hope to find the dawn In a place even specters dwell
Ships passing in the silvery night Carrying this vicious, benevolent heart And in sadness we part In the dark of you, in the dark of me
Release these hearts from the turmoil Only love before they drown
Tired and cold A tale since eons of old So elusive this intemperance of escape So much has fallen and is falling still Into the hands of the ever maddening crowd
