You waited a long long time Hiding the thorns inside Acting strong Feeling like a stranger Lately those eyes have changed Pictures in broken frames Heavy bones Roaming on your own Tired of making sense Tired of shaking hands Take it slow Try to move along I know your heart is on fire Don't let the black dogs follow you down Been spinning the world upon your back You circle round and round When the feeling is gone The hours are long The beauty of the yearning makes you sad Follow the dark moon Follow the northern lights Into the violet night Hazy soul Covered up in snow Learning to see things break Learning to make mistakes Open scars Sparkle in the dark I know your heart is on fire
Don't let the black dogs follow you down Been spinning the world upon your back You circle round and round When the feeling is gone And the hours are long The beauty of the yearning makes you sad Follow the dark moon Burn with a frozen flame Watching the morning trains If gravity makes no sense Call me and call your friends I know your heart is on fire Don't let the black dogs follow you down Been spinning the world upon your back You circle round and round If the feeling is gone The hours are long Spinning the world upon your back You circle round and round The feeling is gone The hours are long The beauty of the yearning makes you sad Follow the dark moon
