Lyrics
Every night the sky melts down To blue shades of emptiness The darkness soothes my soul to sleep I dream of heaven bountiful deepness Bountiful deepness sleep I wake up to the sound of children Playing in the city streets On my way to work each day I pass the streets where the graveyard lay The graveyard lay for me Theres nothing there but cosmic rust Even the tombstones turn to dust Kick it down the ancient trust Even the tombstones turn to dust Turn to dust Work and play day after day All of this is meaningless I dont know why but my heart still beats I cant believe that I still breathe And my heart still beats Theres nothing there but cosmic lust Even the tombstones turn to dust Kick it down the ancient trust Even the tombstones turn to dust Turn to dust
