My love runs deep, like the gutter
It tugs, it weeps, oh the wonder
Save a bite, for the last one
Crowned and tongue-tied like the mad man
See the ants crawl by the window
Wait
What if they feel the same
One dies another takes it's place
Filled with the hope of tomorrow
I go to read by the Ijssel
It calls to me, Aurelia
Fill my eyes for the last time
Bound, glued and dried on the way down
See the ants crawl over my fingers
Wait
What if they feel the same
One dies another takes it's place
Filled with the hope of tomorrow
Give me peace now
I'm asleep now, no more waiting
By the jetty, oh the beauty, not enough for
Are our heroes the ones who die or ones who hold fast
Falling slowly, turning slowly, eyes grow heavy
Feel the ants crawl up my neck
Wait
What if we're all the same
I die another takes my place
Tell them the stories
Of tomorrow
Tell them the stories
Of the ones who lived
Tell the stories
Of the hopeful
