lyrics

What will it take to break the ice?
Another year seeking paradise?
Well that’s got us where?
Our future’s on the line
As we waste in the last remaining wine.

Hear we are wasting time away
Holding on to the sand ‘til its gone.
Can’t you hear the rushing of the sea?
Blowin’ in from the wind that’s
Rising up from the warm
From the burning of the past that we’ve come to own.

So shed a tear if that’s the way you mourn.
Or tear that machine down that’s carried us before.
‘Cause there’s still a chance that we can fight a failing dawn if we wake to the silence we have worn.
