When I'm lying in my sleep
Dead across the deep
I'm tripping over soda cans
And dollars from the marching bands
But you always seem to think
That I am lost so have a drink
I'll tell you that I'm nothing more
Just growing old at 12:04
Well I know
And it looks like you've grown
A long time ago
But I am not afraid
Of the promises you made
Back when we fought for the grey
And you know how it goes
While you're drenched in the snow
But who is left to wait for the show
Well it's just another whisper
All the same
A fleeting jest and laughter
Won't you meet me down the lane
In every way
You know I've left the days
Inside my trail of clay
And it seems you too
Have gone to pay your due
Into the great and giant blue
But ever far you run
And over every sun
Lies another pale and hollow one
Well it's just another whisper
All the same
A fleeting jest and laughter
Meet me down the lane
Just another whisper
Just another whisper
Just another whisper
Just another whisper
Just another whisper
Just another whisper
Trailed over, nothing to lose
But I am still bloody and true
Come out, dear sister, dance for your mother
It's just the heavens and you
Hold the bridges of Babylon down
Cause I won't be here very long
If you can hear the ships coming in
Then maybe you'll have to go on
Carry me over the red fire sky
And don't you dare let me go
Maybe I'll see you out there on the shore
You'll sing to me softly and slow
Carry me over the red fire sky
And don't you dare let me go
Maybe I'll see you out there on the shore
You'll sing to me softly and slow
Carry me over the red fire sky
And don't you dare let me go
Maybe I'll see you out there on the shore
You'll sing to me softly and slow
Carry me over the red fire sky
And don't you dare let me go
Maybe I'll see you out there on the shore
You'll sing to me softly and slow
