lyrics

Well above those roofs
where we lay our blankets down
beneath the sliver of moon
and the glimmer of that silver crown
and it is not a crown that I did place upon your head
no it is not even made of anything tangible,
it is only weightlessness.

And all those flickering lights, they will swallow our eyes
they will make us forget all about the density of our minds
and as the light of the day it does creep
upon those rooftops bathed in sleep
I will be long gone.

And I've been meaning to tell you
that I don't think I was made for this
I am but comings-and-goings
but my bones are not those of dust
and my memories not of rust
and I don't know in whom I trust
anyways it's nice to know you're there.

And now it's probably worth mentioning
that I am not an apostle
and that awaiting the apocalypse,
I've never felt more responsible
those tired words, I see them form upon your lips,
you say, "to find truth is impossible"
but honey if you just let it slip
cause it is not even a question of getting a grip
so honey why don't you just let it slip?
