I'm waiting on a boat Sailing along the shore With my mind full I'm just a courier My home is where I stand And where I lay at last I hold my hand behind my head I reach for yours but grab the wind I'm racing stars, I'm on the run Come back to me before the sun Before the Sun The time had come again To say goodbye, my friend All good things must end I hold my hand behind my head I reach for yours but grab the wind I'm racing stars, I'm on the run Come back to me before the sun Before the Sun I hold my hand behind my head I reach for yours but grab the wind I'm chasing stars, I'm on the run Come back to me before the sun Before the Sun

I'm living in a different I'm living in a different frequency A time and place that no one A time and place that no one here can see Going back in time to see if I can find what I Lost I'm going back to see if my love Has come around We're Idle Warships Catching warm wind In a bottle Under water Catching fire A broken kite since we A broken kite since we tried to fly it last Oh, no, this old town ain't No, this old town ain't going nowhere fast Going back in time to see if I can find what I Lost I'm going back to see if my love Has come a- 'Round it goes again, the beat in my head, pulling on my Strings although it seems the hands on the clock Have come around We're Idle Warships Catching warm wind In a bottle Under water Catching fire

Sometimes 03:41
Sometimes I feel Like I'm walking on air Sometimes I feel Trapped under water Sometimes I'd kill To survive the end Sometimes I'd kill To cut the red wire in my head I forget that it's pain that I miss It's in pain I find bliss In time, my friend We will all be goners In time, again We will see tomorrow We forget that it's pain that we miss It's in pain we find bliss

Birds are flying ever higher In The End That Came in Fire As our hearts ignite But amidst the booming violence I catch a glimpse of blissful silence In your eyes, my love Though it's burning on the surface In the end this will not haunt us Ash will fall away Staring at this boiling ocean I catch your eyes in my reflection Setting with the sun Birds are flying ever higher Birds are flying ever higher In The End That Came in Fire In The End That Came in Fire
