Walk under the lights they glow The river will guide us home Tell stories of history, whiskey fiend boastfully summons the ghost Come join me I am your host For an evening of getting lost Climb into these buildings, abandon my children we've found a new home You can cut out my heart, bury into the ground It will burn these bodies, keep sinking on down Till it reaches the garden and passes through hell And it keeps on still beating through this ancient town Island, my love So now you feel less than whole Resent all that you once loved So tell me why you just keep living this miserable life all alone When you've burned all that you've owned You're left bleeding, empty hole Lets fill up our glasses with absently minding and finding some hope Island, my love My land, I love
