[00:05.280] | |
[00:09.730] | Down in the street theyre all singing and shouting |
[00:14.380] | Staying alive though the city is dead |
[00:19.650] | Hiding their shame behind hollow laughter |
[00:25.200] | While you are crying alone on your bed |
[00:29.810] | Pity cassandra that no one believed you |
[00:35.950] | But then again you were lost from the start |
[00:41.190] | Now we must suffer and sell our secrets |
[00:46.330] | Bargain, playing smart, aching in our hearts |
[00:53.870] | Sorry cassandra I misunderstood |
[00:57.400] | Now the last day is dawning |
[01:01.460] | Some of us wanted but none of us could |
[01:05.810] | Listen to words of warning |
[01:10.130] | But on the darkest of nights |
[01:14.900] | Nobody knew how to fight |
[01:16.200] | And we were caught in our sleep |
[01:20.300] | Sorry cassandra I didnt believe |
[01:23.850] | You really had the power |
[01:28.320] | I only saw it as dreams you would weave |
[01:33.410] | Until the final hour |
[01:39.830] | So in the morning your ship will be sailing |
[01:44.640] | Now that your father and sister are gone |
[01:51.340] | There is no reason for you to linger |
[01:56.370] | Youre grieving deeply but still moving on |
[02:01.450] | You know the future is casting a shadow |
[02:10.280] | No one else sees it but you know youre fate |
[02:15.500] | Packing your bags, being slow and thorough |
[02:20.190] | Knowing, though youre late, that ship is sure to wait |
[02:27.790] | Sorry cassandra I misunderstood |
[02:30.760] | Now the last day is dawning |
[02:36.200] | Some of us wanted but none of us could |
[02:39.920] | Listen to words of warning |
[02:44.230] | But on the darkest of nights |
[02:47.870] | Nobody knew how to fight |
[02:49.880] | And we were caught in our sleep |
[02:54.270] | Sorry cassandra I didnt believe |
[02:58.600] | You really had the power |
[03:02.630] | I only saw it as dreams you would weave |
[03:08.200] | Until the final hour |
[03:15.120] | I watched the ship leaving harbour at sunrise |
[03:20.300] | Sails almost slack in the cool morning rain |
[03:25.500] | She stood on deck, just a tiny figure |
[03:30.579] | Rigid and restrained, blue eyes filled with pain |
[03:38.230] | Sorry cassandra I misunderstood |
[03:41.310] | Now the last day is dawning |
[03:45.829] | Some of us wanted but none of us could |
[03:51.530] | Listen to words of warning |
[03:54.690] | But on the darkest of nights |
[03:58.480] | Nobody knew how to fight |
[04:00.400] | And we were caught in our sleep |
[04:05.200] | Sorry cassandra I didnt believe |
[04:08.530] | You really had the power |
[04:12.940] | I only saw it as dreams you would weave |
[04:17.740] | Until the final hour |
[04:31.890] | Im sorry cassandra |
[04:35.930] | Im sorry cassandra |
