A
A green and red ferry stood still somewhere
Waiting for our fair-faced company
Waves were splashing against the rocks ahead
Wetting all of our feet so I said:
"Come here my friend, sit down nex
t to me
Let's enjoy this ride across the sea."
Dedicated songs go through our heads
The morning seems so very cold and clear.
B
The taste of blood in my mouth does
Bring back memories
The stinging pain of burnt flesh does
Take us back to that
A
Time stood still while we awaited for
The drinks I felt should not be had that day
"Celebrating with a friend or two
Is not so bad" you shouted across the room.
A speeding train then crossed the fields so dark,
While dry farewells flew far off their mark
Hesitating in the parking lot
Whether we would truly make the cut.
B
The taste of blood in my mouth does
Bring back memories
The stinging pain of burnt flesh does
Take us back to that
Moment when we played with fire
And the stakes got higher
Strange faces gathered to follow
A display of joy and hate.
C
High tide is already gone, we missed the boat our future was on
New moon is climbing up the sky, where the black birds fly and stars go die
X Say where you want us to go, we are moving too slow, to escape the snow
Pretty words won't save us now, we are going down, throw away my crown
D
So very cold
No remedy
This feeling won't leave me be
Tasting the blood
Feeling the flesh
I pay but you can't see
Feeling unclean
Where have I been?
You know but you just won't tell
Caught in a storm
Feelings are torn
I'm wounded and I don't care.
Don't care.
C
The road home is so very long, you'll soon be gone but remember my song
X Heavy feet drag me around, I won't make a sound with a heart so proud
Stars, our guides, are out of sight, in the black of night when might makes right
These words are for you to keep, to recall in sleep, just don't go too deep or you'll set me free.
