Tick Tock
Oceanside
Ends the ride
Then you fall
The skies fly by
You close your eyes
Crystal ball
You beg for time
Shes china white
Theres no cure
Nowhere to hide
Better off
Where theres no geography
Unseen hands will rest
The true pace of time
Your hear the thunder
Far below
The air is younger
The engines cold
She sells temptation
What youre looking for
You place your bet
And cross your arms
And if youre lucky
The engine talks
The roads a dream within a dream
The world a cloud around you
Wouldnt sell out
Just kept on living
Stayed in the fold
There was no money
Truth be told, he wasnt ready
When she said she had to go
The will was read out loud
The blood and the wine
Its now that Im gone
That youll see where inside of me
An angel watching you and me
As I loved the intense light, on the other side of you
Had a good look
At the course of times we knew
Are making you old when you try and forget then
The will was read out loud
A nursery rhyme
When you were gone I stayed on with this hole inside of me
Watching the house from the sea
When he met with his memories he didnt know their names
You never called
Deep within his mind
A city was dark from the death of his fire
The will was read out loud
The cruel and the kind
Written in sand every day and the hole inside of me
Grey as the spray of the sea
Broken glass
The plan has failed
The silence knows
A man of faith
Everything that you know, what a layman will for diamonds
Fell on his knees gave in the sad overload
And all of the survivors shamed in the trench
Scrape up whats left of his soul
Of his soul, of his soul
Come out of the shadows
The hills are a-green
Painting you a rainbow
Singing you a dream
Now what is pride for you
It aint no good to you
Youll make a substitute
That lets you fly away
You silence every love
Yet you always starve for more
Youre only wasting time
Lucky to be alive
Lucky to be alive
Your heart was set to lose
The nurse called out for blood
Youre a celestial tremor
Surfin on the fast-track
Blue suede shoes
Dancing on a landmine
Designed just for you
The mess youre in, oh heaven
No stranger to fear
It wont disappear
Truth never fades away
These thoughts are me
And what do you think theyll do?
The ground is a pendulum
The continent is gravel
Humming in your shoe
A pendulum
And who decides for us
At the very end of trust
The undertow of love
We only turn away
