lyrics

I still believe that we cannot be saved.
Saved by the rays of the son.
The moonlight will come down and lift us in waves.
Lift us as if we were one.

Please take me back to the waves.
Where I don't quite know what to say.

No chord, the echoes like swarmings of hoards.
Move towards, build castles on your own accord.
There's no time, I'm all that I am divine.
There's no sign, I walk now this day it is mine.
let me rub this earth's dirt into your angelic skin my darling.
I'd do anything to make it seem like I was worthy in your presence.
Little did I know you smiled and left a mark on me so strong.
I think I'm half the man, beholden.
My heart it beats around your essence.

Please take me back to the waves.
Where I don't quite know what to say.

We shine like summer on through these darkened nights.
I take one small step on to my greater heights.
Running's easier when I'm walking on clouds.
We speak like poets through huge dramatic sounds.
