lyrics

as it falls in disgust
this is all too much
I won't believe it,
unless I see it
determination starts to rust
well you talk a good game
while in the line of fire
if I don't need it
well so be it
at a glance you're all I admire

to the laughs and to the cries
to all those teardrops falling from the skies

at the moment so close
that i don't have a clue
this secret is safe each breath is a waste
and now I'm onto you.
well you talk a good game
when it's your desire
if I can't achieve it,
well so be it
I'll set these old sheets on fire.

to the waves and to the wind
to all the hands and fists and hearts that beat again
to the moon and to the sun
to all those restless minds that won't stop until it's done

when your safe inside
follow me until
everything is waiting there for you
so what is it that you crave
and call for in your dreams
short of breath you gasp, you've let the demons in

to the waves and to the wind
to all the hands and fists and hearts that beat again
to the moon and to the sun
we won't stop until it's done
