LYRICS

"We Moved Like Ghosts"
01. SAINT ABOUT TO FALL
Restless from the fury, I laid her out to sin. But she stayed to serve
the night once again. Once again, in her is the end of all things, of
all things. This worn out cast has dropped so low. A saint about to
fall, I let her go. I let her go because in her is the end of all
things. And once again, I laid her out to sin but she stayed. But she
stayed.
02. DON’T MAKE A WEAPON
Don’t make a weapon out of holding out on me. There’s nothing left but
your sad sympathy. Hung out somewhere between nowhere and goodbye. Don’t
let you fear turn to silent seed. Don’t try to murder more than you and
I need. There is no line or time closing in on me. So won’t you come
back and tell me something worse than lies that I can remember. What set
you off today I could not read? Why must you always take it out on me?
Because I’m not strong with you and I’m fading. So won’t you come back
and tell me something worse than lies that I can remember.
03. LIGHT
I want to ride in the light beside you and hear your heart make a sound
for me.
04. ALL THESE ACCIDENTS
You starve me in little ways but I don’t mind. Lie still beneath the
weight that keeps us on. So why is it everything or nothing at all when
all these accidents seem so wrong? These little accidents they go on.
They can’t go on. The hopeless comes in the night for another round. At
poor peace I sleep in this stranger’s town. And wait for you to throw me
one last time because all these accidents seem so wrong. These little
accidents they go on. All these accidents seem so wrong. They can’t go
on.
05. I SPEAK TO YOU WITH A SINGLE HEART
I made my mind to wait in vain and hide beneath the warring lines. So
near and strange I settled down, but there is nothing left here to be
found. I speak to you heart with a single heart and a foolish smile that
says I’m lost. I drag my feet until you’re gone and I’ll know by then if
you want me along. I made my mind to wait in vain and speak to you heart
with a single heart. With a single heart.
06. NOT FAR FROM THIS ANGER
Awake and drawn wishing away these lines of age. Watch it slide, slide
like the sea inside of me and drown. Walk away and see how it feels
without me. I did my best with what I had. All cool and dry and not so
far from this anger. I move, ashamed at how sad I’ve become on my own.
Walk away and see how it feels without me. I did my best with what I had
and I’m not so far, not so far from this anger and you.
07. WITH STARS DOWN
It’s hard now with all the stars turned down. Tell me what I did that
made you doubt me. October, cold starts and sober shoulders. I changed
everything to lure you away. To lure you away, still burning in my arms,
don’t you ever get a little bit lonely? Jaded and fading let’s never
look back so I can forget you. It’s hard now with all the stars turned
down. Tell me what I did that made you doubt me. That made you doubt me.
08. SOMETIMES LOVE RUNS OUT
I long often wondered if dark was the long way. It’s all I can see now
from where I stand with you. Sometimes, oh, sometimes love runs out.
From out of the wreckage no one cared to share. I wish I could feed you
the rest of the story. Sometimes, oh, sometimes love runs out.
Sometimes, oh, sometimes love runs out.
09. SUMMER’S END
These worn nerves are torn up and wired to the night. We’ll dress them
down and wait until it’s light. And I’ll leave you a way out always.
This summer’s end is waking and still we have to stay. Have my wounds
healed and left you lying here? I’m walking in wishes right behind this
fear. And I’ll leave you a way out always. This summer’s end is waking
and still we have to stay. We have to stay. We have to stay.
10. WITHOUT FAIL
Pain is the only true thing you’ve ever shown me. You move like a ghost.
Without fail this time. Set fire to the stars. Nobody chained me up.
Nobody ever thought this is how it would be. Still shy and hopeful we
were once sad strangers. We moved like ghosts. Without fail this time.
Set fire to the stars. Nobody chained me up. Nobody ever thought this is
how it would be.
