A finger on your mouth Contemplate everything alive All that breathes, that runs You feel it all Older than the dawn Once it seemed like fun In this city of gold Bleeding and fading away You've got everything to lose Turn these bruises into wine Blooms eventually decay Reaching ecstasy through god's strained heart Your innocent life, your immaculate heart Walked with pilgrims in the snows Dressed like wolves in these exotic lands You showed me how to live Another way Older than the dawn Once it seemed like fun In this city of gold Bleeding and fading away You've got everything to lose
Turn these bruises into wine Blooms eventually decay Reaching ecstasy through god's strained heart Your innocent life, your immaculate heart You've got everything to lose Turn these bruises into wine Blooms eventually decay Reaching ecstasy through god's strained heart Your innocent life, your immaculate heart You've got everything to lose Turn these bruises into wine Blooms eventually decay Reaching ecstasy through god's strained heart Your innocent life, your immaculate heart Older than the dawn You've got it all to lose In this city of gold Bleeding and fading Bleeding and fading away
