The nights are longer now the dreams are just the same
So begins another day
And though we feel alive with every waking hour
Something died along the way
Robbed of innocence stripped of liberty
Though our hearts were open wide
While her sails are furled the ship will never sail
She's only drifting on the tide
We live by the silent code
Nobody wants to hear, no one would understand
We walk a dark lonely road
No destination, we have no map to scan
We hoped the past could be erased without a trace
We sailed into the setting sun
When I found you'd barely recognised my face
The end had only just begun
We live by the silent code
Nobody wants to hear, no one would understand
We walk a dark lonely road
We have no guiding star, we have no masterplan
You've been away so long, we know you've suffered and we'll
Bring you back where you all belong
But when you get back home you mustn't talk about it
That would be best for everyone
Rediscovered lives, undiscovered futures
Retracing footsteps one step at a time
Undiscovered fears, unfamiliar faces
An unfamiliar road, bare the heavy load
We live by the silent code
Nobody wants to hear, no one would understand
We walk a dark lonely road
We have no guiding star, we have no map to scan
