When I'm lying in my sleep Dead across the deep I'm tripping over soda cans And dollars from the marching bands But you always seem to think That I am lost so have a drink I'll tell you that I'm nothing more Just growing old at 12:04 Well I know And it looks like you've grown A long time ago But I am not afraid Of the promises you made Back when we fought for the grey And you know how it goes While you're drenched in the snow But who is left to wait for the show Well it's just another whisper All the same A fleeting jest and laughter Won't you meet me down the lane In every way You know I've left the days Inside my trail of clay And it seems you too Have gone to pay your due Into the great and giant blue But ever far you run And over every sun Lies another pale and hollow one Well it's just another whisper All the same A fleeting jest and laughter Meet me down the lane Just another whisper Just another whisper Just another whisper Just another whisper Just another whisper Just another whisper Trailed over, nothing to lose But I am still bloody and true Come out, dear sister, dance for your mother It's just the heavens and you Hold the bridges of Babylon down Cause I won't be here very long If you can hear the ships coming in Then maybe you'll have to go on Carry me over the red fire sky And don't you dare let me go Maybe I'll see you out there on the shore You'll sing to me softly and slow Carry me over the red fire sky And don't you dare let me go Maybe I'll see you out there on the shore You'll sing to me softly and slow Carry me over the red fire sky And don't you dare let me go Maybe I'll see you out there on the shore You'll sing to me softly and slow Carry me over the red fire sky And don't you dare let me go Maybe I'll see you out there on the shore You'll sing to me softly and slow
