lyrics

LIKE GOD’S ASLEEP

I REMEMBER YOU WERE DRIVING
I FORGET WHERE WE GOT LOST
I WAS TIRED, BUT YOU WERE DIVING
WIDE AWAKE, INTO MY THOUGHTS

AND THEN WE STARTED GAINING SPEED
THE EVENING TOOK A TURN
WE RAN THE BARRICADES
AND WATCHED THE BRIDGES BURN
BUT NEVER STOPPED TO ASK OURSELVES
WILL WE EVER LEARN

THIS TALK IS CHEAP
SAVE YOUR PRAYERS
IF NO ONE’S LISTENING OUT THERE
NO LIGHT, NO HEAT
JUST DEAD-END STREET
LIKE GOD’S ASLEEP

THE TIES WE SWORE WERE BINDING
THEY’VE BECOME AN ALBATROSS
WHAT WE CALLED A SILVER LINING
NOW WE CAN’T AFFORD ITS COST

‘CAUSE SOMEONE HAS TO BLEED
THE WORLD STILL NEEDS TO TURN
SO WE SET FIRE TO THE SEAS
AND WATCHED OUR KINGDOM BURN
BUT NEVER THOUGHT TO SAVE OURSELVES

THIS TALK IS CHEAP
SAVE YOUR PRAYERS
IF NO ONE’S LISTENING OUT THERE
NO LIGHT, NO HEAT
JUST DEAD-END STREET
LIKE GOD’S ASLEEP

YOU HANDED ME THE KEYS
THE IGNITION WOULDN’T TURN
I COULD SMELL THE GASOLINE
BUT I COULDN’T MAKE IT BURN
SO AFRAID TO ASK MYSELF
WILL I EVER LEARN
