Saw things that the rat saw |
|
And my eyes couldn't take them in |
|
Just want to fall here silently |
|
Into the arms of people I love |
|
Under waiting stars as the ships come rolling in |
|
But look at the way the faces turn |
|
Eyes burn why (eyes burn why) |
|
If you be the sky then I'll be the bird |
|
But look at the way the faces turn |
|
Eyes burn why (eyes burn why) |
|
If you be the sky then I'll be the bird |
|
So the power lines were leaning |
|
And all was lost |
|
Make a vow with the city lights |
|
With your fingers crossed |
|
You said I'd be a place and time |
|
Said I'd be a man |
|
Making eyes with a sea of lies |
|
So you understand |
|
That you're raping on my dreaming |
|
And you're ruining my best made plans |
|
The rat he turned and bared his teeth at you |
|
The wake is calling, what you gonna do? |
|
But your head's gone |
|
And it won't be long |
|
The rat he turned and bared his teeth at you |
|
The wake is calling, what you gonna do? |
|
But your head's gone |
|
And it won't be long |
|
So the sinners stopped and the villains turned |
|
And I'll be the sky and you be the bird |
|
Let's meet the mountains and see what they heard |
|
And I'll be the sky and you be the bird |
|
And I'll be the sky and you be the bird (x4) |
