Old Heart Falls

The weighted clouds coming by Has me looking right here under the sky And I left my home, passed the evening fires In the blink of an eye, I had closed the door behind me The vapour of old love will transfigure, through a veil of clarity I sense my grave, way below the mire Sorrow will find you Its voice has given way to mine Heart pumps death into heredity Who wants to come with me? For every dream that is left behind me, I take a bow With every war that will rage inside me, I hear the sound Of another day, in this vanishing life, returned to dust (returned to dust) And every chance I’ve pushed away into the night Time won’t let go It’s got you in debt now And it’s got me crawling All the way back to the start I swear that I saw you there Your hands were reaching out for mine Sorrow will find you For every dream that is left behind me, I take a bow With every war that will rage inside me, I hear the sound Of another day, in this vanishing life, returned to dust (returned to dust) And every chance I’ve pushed away into the night I sense my grave, way below the mire
