Lyrics

[00:27.67] This time we run
[00:31.41] this time we hide
[00:33.28]
[00:35.03] This time we draw on all the fire we have inside.
[00:40.83]
[00:42.85] We need some time to find a place
[00:48.23]
[00:50.10] Where I can wipe away the madness from your face.
[00:55.53]
[00:57.65] Our name is out
[00:59.58]
[01:01.14] our name is known
[01:03.39]
[01:05.33] Our name is everywhere
[01:07.82] but who knows where we're flown.
[01:10.68]
[01:12.61] I never meant to kill a man
[01:18.86]
[01:19.98] But I will show you how to live like no one can.
[01:25.72]
[01:27.41] So look away
[01:28.53] look away
[01:29.90]
[01:31.28] Hide your eyes from the land where I lie cold.
[01:35.08] Look away
[01:35.96] look away from the lies in the stories that were told.
[01:42.51] Look away
[01:43.20] look away from the love that I hide way down deep in my soul.
[01:49.12]
[01:50.12] I met you wild in a snowed up town
[01:55.43]
[01:57.49] When I was waiting tied and bound to be sent down.
[02:02.98]
[02:05.16] Then I broke loose
[02:06.85]
[02:08.66] you weren't around
[02:10.65]
[02:12.34] So I raised banks and trains until I tracked you down.
[02:19.77] Now look away
[02:20.39] look away Hide your eyes from the land where I lie cold.
[02:27.26] Look away
[02:28.00] look away from the lies in the stories that were told.
[02:35.02] Look away
[02:35.66] look away from the love that I hide way down deep in my soul.
[02:41.63]
[03:08.84] You followed me when I said no
[03:14.50]
[03:16.25] You lay with me when there was nowhere safe to go.
[03:21.78]
[03:23.84] We made some friends
[03:25.84]
[03:27.40] but now it's done
[03:30.26]
[03:30.94] I always knew that we would never find the sun.
[03:37.12]
[03:38.40] So look away
[03:39.21] look away
[03:40.83]
[03:42.41] Hide your eyes from the land where I lie cold.
[03:46.09] Look away
[03:46.78] look away from the lies in the stories that were told.
[03:53.58] Look away
[03:54.36] look away from the love that I hide way down deep in my soul.
[04:00.04]
[04:00.92] look away
[04:02.55]
[04:04.86] Hide your eyes from the land where I lie cold.
[04:08.42] Look away
[04:09.11] look away from the lies in the stories that were told.
[04:16.09] Look away
[04:16.78] look away from the love that I hide way down deep in my soul.
