Lyrics
She said
Stars on parade
Haloed moon
Autumn bloom
Came too soon
I said
Time on our side
Like wind on the tide
All the stories
In the whites of our eyes
What if we're just shadows dancing at dawn
Or a light that was here and now it's gone
These fleeting days
As brittle as float glass
And what if we never really die
Long after dawn breaks
And the dusk mends
And the fire fades
Long after lying in the grave
A sunrise choir will kiss the sky blue
After the living is through
I said
Dirt on our knees
Birds in the trees
Like prisoners
Trapped up in the sky
She said
Every grain of sand
Falling through our hands
Each one a moment
We'll never understand
What if we're just floating in the dark
A lonely ember that can't catch a spark
These fleeting days
As fickle as the weather
And what if we never really lived
After the stars fall
The seas rise
And we lose it all
After the cursing and the praying
The sunrise choir will kiss the sky new
After the living is through
