Seven Lyrics

the searchlight burns a shade of blue across her eyes she draws in close and holds the sea and sinks into the sky i'm ringing bells for babylon and all her fallen dreams i'm singing tides for all you are so washed away, so long into the sea she reaches in when all is dim and breaks the sound and when it's done you meet the one who took you down i'm burning pages of your life that stained the book of mine i'm holding stars against the wind to sift away the time coming up for air, still can't find the door in citadels you rise, in Israel we die if all your children sleep what promise can you keep? don't give me reasons why in another empty sigh you know it's true, you don't ask why your written words are always lies wait for me, i'm coming home, to let it go to let it die you know it's true you don't ask why your written words are always lies wait for me, i'm coming home, to let you go, to let it die...
