Lyrics

When I Leave


Like a wave breaking
Like a fire in the sky
You come to me in dreams

Like an empty city
Like a star exploding
Just a memory in the sky

I know it?s late and we?ve had our time
But when I leave I want you by my side

I?m a walking shadow
A distant caller filled with lies
And I keep them so well

But you just break me open
A shallow hero crashing at your feet

I know it?s late and we?ve had our time
But when I leave I want you by my side

Lift me up until I reach the sky
Chances come and go
Moments die
Lift me up until I reach the sky
I am yours and your are mine

Look out on the street tonight
Those boys in their circles
Spinning through the rain

Their poisoned blades are flashing
Wild animals
They?re nothing to you now

I know it?s late and we?ve had our time
But when I leave I want you by my side

I know it?s late and we?ve had our time
But when I leave I want you by my side
