When the darkness falls early,

And the light hits the ground

There's a moment to be captured

So I sit here with silence

In the makes of my eyes

Talking to you, who left before

I don't know why

I don't know why

These things, I cannot . . .

It comes with the gig,

I feel it dwelling

The friends, away, afraid of me

And I know I'm near,

But my pride is selling

Trading for hearts of humble peers

Trading for hearts of humble peers

And she comes with the son,

Her light is shining, beaming with love

Flying to the ocean,

And I, I know the seagulls

When I see her flying

Reaching out to the bones

That are casually roasting

(chorus) And my skin is burning

With the fire of the world.

Sometimes my eyes are tricking me

But when the words of His song

Are singing through the birds

I can't help but die, so He can take me higher

I can't help but die, so He can take me higher

And this dark small pain

Grows like cancer

Sometimes her eyes are speaking to me

But when the flesh is gone,

My soul is all I travel by,

And my guitar will vanish like the earth and the sea

Yes, my guitar will vanish like the earth

(chorus)
