Lyrics:
Let's call this the quiet city: Where screams are felt as a wave of stoplights Drive through the streets as gunshots punctuate the night The sides we take divide us from our faith And the morning dove gets caught in the telephone wire Asleep you set the fire in your own house And the night was a knife that cut And I'm paralyzed Cross out the eyes Blur all the lines Tearing this canvas from the wall We crossed out the eyes Put lines through these cries We pulled all the leaves from the trees that fall A silent dance that we did into this hospital bed Hear voices from another room "It happens all the time" But July in the sand The leaves falling And counting down our days to live.... Drain the blood from this valentine. "We can rise on the wings of the dove See blue skies getting caught in the trail of all this smoke We can rise like candles in the dark-yours always" And an envelope marked with your new address Asleep you set the fire in your own house And the night was a knife that cut And I'm paralyzed Cross out the eyes Blur all the lines Tearing this canvas from the wall We crossed out the eyes Put lines through these cries We pulled all the leaves from the trees that fall It was the first time face to face I'm crossing the line Talking to the other side of death Hearing the words that choke memories into flatlines I'm calling your name hoping for something to wash these dreams of you away (can't we die!) (memories in flatlines!) Cross out the eyes with a set of these lines Cross out the eyes with a set of these lines! (cross out the eyes!) Our fence was blown down in a winter storm and this field (Cross out the eyes!) Stretches out of this world into the sound (A trace of) What can we do to put a stop to these coming white days (A love song) I'm hoping the snow will wash these dreams of you away (Stretches out of this world, Let's drive back the dead. Stretches out of this world. Stretches out of this world.)
