Alone I have walked on this road
White, hollow figures gathered to mourn
Fixed on the shore
Numb from the war
These days are as dark as the nights
Cold cuts like daggers into your skin
The light is still on but nobody's home
The words I speak break down on your deaf ears
If you could only see
Would you believe?
The line between seems so easy to cross
When you're angry and lost
To grow accustomed to the lesser light
With the eyes of the children watching you
Oh you're reserved and remote
In this city of ghosts
Can't you see, can't you see
That no one else can bring us back together
You're the one we need
You're holding on to blue-sky heroes in the dark
Cut down the cords and pull the covers off the sun tonight
You turn a blind eye when you're given the score
But who are you to even criticise
When you've never taken your own advice
Light up the city streets
I will put an end to this hardship
I will put an end to this monster
I won't back down from this
I will bring an end to this hardship
I will bring an end to this monster
Tear for tear and loving kiss for kiss
All the love you saved for a reverie
The sum of these are countless in all means
And if you'd only see
You'd still believe
