[Verse 1]
In the distance of the hallway
Where the light begins to bend
You’re counting out the minutes
Until the world begins to end
Did you leave the letters empty?
Did you keep the ghost at bay?
Or is the debt you owe to living
Just a price you cannot pay?
[Pre-Chorus]
And the sun is just a memory
Of a spark you used to hold
While the silver in the mirror
Turns to lead and then to gold.
[Chorus]
If tomorrow never comes
Will the silence be your friend?
Will you find the missing pieces
In the wreckage at the end?
If the clock forgets to chime
And the sky begins to fall
Will you reach across the distance?
Or was there nothing there at all?
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
With no one left to answer
From the great and dark beyond
So you close the heavy shutters
And you turn the final key
While the stars prepare to witness
