I have seen lies greater than the sea sky line

More than nine lives from twenty seven years gone by

I have occupied every casualty of silence

And fallen asleep angry at myself ever since

Any ordinary words might have set this night on fire

With promises unspoken

Finally this heart is open to your devotion

I have seen hate triumph over compassion

Suicide sanctioned from nation to nation

But I have seen love triumph over final chances

And fallen asleep safely in your arms ever since
