Lyrics The Thermals

The Thermals

The Sunset

I am never alone

My shadows are close where I need them to be

I keep them with me

I am never afraid,

My shadows are close

I am safe when they stay

They whisper the way

They hold my head to the sky

Point my eyes to the end

Now the sunset won't pass me by again

I stray from the path

My shadows are late, they escape from my mind

They fall behind

Now I feel free to kill

But I know my shadows they follow me still

And they probably always will

They hold my head to the sky

Point my eyes to the end

Now the sunset won't pass me by again

Now the sunset won't pass me by, won't pass me by again

I am always alert, although my enemies are few

I know the ones you will hurt

Are the closest to you

I am always awake in the fear they are gone

But my shadows are fate

They've been here all along

They hold my head to the sky

Point my eyes to the end

Now the sunset won't pass me by again

Now the sunset won't pass me by, won't pass me by again

Oh the sunset won't á¹—ass me by, won't pass me by, won't pass me by again
