Departure

I can sense departure in the air Now it's only the past that we share Divided at a parting of the road Where I could ride on or lighten the load I've been dreaming of a town Where the lost and found And wrong way round are bound For departure I've been comfortably numb But a change is gonna come Like a storm Driving down through the streets From mount Desolation's peak To make you pure For departure, for departure Lover, we have fought and we have laughed At every obstacle thrown in our path The things have gotta change before I crack Before I get so lost I can't get back I've been dreaming of a town Where the lost and found And wrong way round are bound For departure I woke up at the mouth Of a river in the south Of this land Where the tide and the stones Strip the troubles from your bones And make you glad Of departure I'll treasure 'til I'm dead Everything that we have said and done For the voice in my head Is telling me I'd best be moving on Cause the decent folk don't want me Everywhere my missteps haunt me But the fears that always stalked me Seem to fade away When I start dreaming of a town Where the lost and found And wrong way round are bound For departure I woke up at the mouth Of a river in the south Of this land Where the tide and the stones Strip the troubles from your bones And make you glad Of departure Where the tide and the stones Strip the troubles from your bones And make you glad Of departure The death of love The death of love It's nothing to be scared of It's just a light switching off
