Lyrics to Possession Island
I stand and look out on the dark plains
Where the moon is rising
And the hydrofoils are coming back in
From the past in silence
Where things they don't exist
And we're all in this together 'till the end
Where the pearly gates remain open
And welcome me home
By the time I came to California I died
By the hands of the ghostly queen
Where things they don't exist
And we're all in this together 'till the end
'Till the end
Evermore
Should I ask you? (Should I ask you?)
For forgiveness? (For forgiveness?)
And open my heart?
If I say these words will you listen
Or leave me here in the dark
Where things they don't exist
And we're all in this together 'till the end
'Till the end
Where things they don't exist
And we're all in this together 'till the end
'Till the end
Where the moon is rising
And the hydrofoils are coming back in
From the past in silence
Where things they don't exist
And we're all in this together 'till the end
Where the pearly gates remain open
And welcome me home
By the time I came to California I died
By the hands of the ghostly queen
Where things they don't exist
And we're all in this together 'till the end
'Till the end
Evermore
Should I ask you? (Should I ask you?)
For forgiveness? (For forgiveness?)
And open my heart?
If I say these words will you listen
Or leave me here in the dark
Where things they don't exist
And we're all in this together 'till the end
'Till the end
Where things they don't exist
And we're all in this together 'till the end
'Till the end
