Islands

There she drew Excalibur and tore my shirt open In the cold when we were saving it for the future Those streets were paved with gold, covered in ashes I watched her move with the speed of sound With my feet stuck on the ground Breaking the waves I set sail for the islands in my mind Chasing a tale that's untold We never crossed the line To the lost boy castaway she was a vision But this life unstoppable brought ice to her lashes I watched her shadow dance like fire Through the haze of frost and smoke Could you feel it then I can feel it now Breaking the waves I set sail for the islands in my mind Chasing a tale that's untold We never crossed the line Can you hear the sirens calling Bridges are burning Feel my chest beating Into the islands I'm bringing this Every time we go out, down these same old familiar roads Every day it's the same, we live our lives in different ways If you can't look me in the eye how can you say you're my best friend Does it mean anything at all if you never see me again Breaking the waves I set sail for the islands in my mind Chasing a tale that's untold We never crossed the line Can you hear the sirens calling Bridges are burning Feel my chest beating Into the islands I'm bringing this
