Lyrics
Mornings used to seem so special
We'd have faith in the sun
And whisper such sweet music
Our Shangri-La had come.
We would chirp for all the neighbors
Two young birds on the plain
But now our pathways don't cross
I guess I'll blame the rain.
Chorus
'Cause I couldn't chase away all your demons at night
People learn to love the darkness but they never question why
And no one ever knows
Where tired angels go
I just wish we could've seen
Our fading sky
Our fading sky
You walked straight into the city
And I tried to find your voice
But soon you cursed the daylight
The skeletons rejoiced
Now I'm lost beyond the shadows
Secrets drown in my wine
So if you hear this message
Please ask the moon to shine
-Repeat chorus-
No horizon comforts the loneliest swan
But maybe I'll reach another dawn
-Repeat chorus-
