LYRICS

we looked back at the futures that were yet to unfold 
telling the tales that have all been told 

we sat on the walls so far from home 
and you picked the moss off that ancient stone 

and we fell asleep in pastures green 
and let go our grey-sky sisyphean scenes 

the rivers of our minds have been running for so long 
if only our fears were lost in their song 

oh let’s sail away to islands new 
much better a blue-sky sicily view 

sleep restlessly 
dream beneath the sea 
so hard to let you go 

but now the deed is done 
and all of my mind battles won

though it’s not the life that I would choose 
we still have our dreams syracuse

Syracuse

Our first song, let us know what you think!

LYRICS:

I see your outline in the dark
I can hear the blood run in your heart 
when we’re in each other’s arms

The stillness of the night is here 
with all the riot of our fear
trying to re-open our scars

But nothing in this life is real
and time alone won’t help to heal 
getting to the hardest part

Time is running out  for us 
All our dreams turn to dust
Never dreamed it be so hard
 
And it’s tearing me apart must be something that I can do
I’m through with chasing stars and howling at the moon
I’m done with being young and waiting for life to start
You’re not the only one who’s got a fragile heart

Now I see the lights go down   
and all the faces in the crowd 
disappear into the dark

And all the songs that we once sung 
sound so much better in the sun 
what better place to make a start

‘Cos happy ends are just a ruse 
you try to win that’s when you lose 
it’s peace we need to feel sane

And time is ticking on my dear 
there’s nothing left for us to fear 
there’s no one left to play the game

And it’s tearing me apart must be something that I can do
I’m through with chasing stars and howling at the moon
I’m done with being young and waiting for life to start
You’re not the only one who’s got a fragile heart

Syracuse
