The world is just an accident, that’s why we’re not alone

The grains of sands I pluck from your hair were once walls made of stone

I do not need to tell you of the shock of newborn calls

I do not need to walk you down our hallowed history’s halls

I only need to touch you, tender as a brine

We can peel off the shadows

Dream with our eyes closed

And sleep with the window open

My hands are made of timbre, my mouth speaks like a flood

The mystery of us races through the dark beat of my blood

With the trees insisting and pointing to the stars

We can peel off the shadows

Dream with our eyes closed

And sleep with the window open

We can speak in our soft tongue

And breathe in a day done

Sleep with the window open

So what the coffers’ empty, so what the thrill is gone

So what the sun is setting and you can’t be born again

So there’s a finish line I’ll race you to the end

So what the land has died on you, so what it won’t come back

So what the lights have broken before the fade to black

So what the doors have closed on you, the night comes tumbling back

So what the world is crowded, at least we’re not alone

So what the world is crowded, at least we’re not alone

At least we’re not alone, at least we’re not alone
