We're leaving today After dust-ridden shutters close And heartbeats they rush Then to cease in your embrace
These scars though-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 on to me Until even tide enters There's no place out of here
(For grace to life me up every molecule whispered to make peace with the 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 madding 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 use 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 madding crowd
