The faceless stage of loaded leaves The mountain mounds around our feet The soiled and severed dormant reeds On shopfronts filled our brooding streets The love we draw, upon so sweet The moment strained our stillness Above the calls of only men That brave the dirt of handheld pen And in the end our weightless state Was all we had to break away I know I should have stayed that day Your eyes wrapped 'round me still And in the now, this wistful town Was swept and drowned beneath its ground But how the streets adore me now But how the streets adore me now My love, my light, my darkness
