Lyrics The Classic Crime

The Classic Crime

Wake Up (Shipwreck)

It's a beautiful landscape

The sunset makes the coast look so clear

It's the kind that makes your heart break

But no one has those kind of problems here

And from the stage brush comes a dove

It comes to take away the ones you love

In camouflage comes a dove

And it comes to take away the ones you love

Wake up, you're faithless

See your heart break

Gone

From hope is found a way

To lead this foolish flock of sheep astray

And the clouds make fearful noises

And slowly turn black and shake

The darkness comes around you

The darkest come to take

And it will cut the life right from you

Leave you standing in the rain

With nowhere left to run to

And no one left to love you but the pain

Wake up, you're faithless

See your heart break

Gone

It's no use trying to hold on

Wake up, you're faithless

Won't be here for long

And this shipwreck will soon be gone (this shipwreck

will soon be gone)

All that I know is what I've learned from troubled

times

I've stood alone on the last shore with burning hand

under black skies

I have been hunted through the valleys and the corners

of my life

Fight or die

Wake up, you're faithless

See your heart break

Gone

It's no use trying to hold on

Wake up you're faithless

Won't be here for long

And this shipwreck will soon be gone

Wake up, you're faithless
