lyrics

The dust that arrived will settle in time.
I'll trace back the footsteps to "Your hand in mine".
I built the high rise, you set foot on the miles and miles and miles I'd never try.

Save me if you want me, save me if you want.

Feeling misled, as I lay down to bed, I emptied the ashes and coughed back to sleep.
Our polished demise to set foot once again to find something as lonely as you never get.

Save me if you want me, save me if you want.

So long my little bird, ration the courage you always deserved.
Spare every broken wing, all for the love song I never could sing.

On our last night we'll travel alone. There's no looking back at our ramshackled home.
I'll find me a taste the was sweet as her eyes, 'cause no one is foolish enough to say otherwise.

Save me if you want me, save me if you want.

So long my little bird, ration the courage you always deserved.
Spare every broken wing, all for the love song I never did sing.

I know what you're saying, there's a fox and a fawn, and I'm anticipating that you know what side you're on.
I'm here in this moment and I know for sure.
We were there for a reason, but who talks like that anyway?

No final words.
