lyrics

I've been waiting so long for a moment that defines us.
So long, a silhouette was standing right beside me.
We were almost one, but we don't belong.

While some rise like Kings, you hide like a ghost.
Scared of what's alive in those hearts, beating so hard, the balance that could bring.
Torn by two lives, while your shadow seems to roam on the darker side.
I for one will never see the way your eyes could stare right through me.

Follow me home, I will lead you from those dark ghosts,
Follow me home, I will lead you from those dark ghosts,
Whose shadows fade in early light.

When I look down skies of vapour and clouds are all that lie beneath me now.
Awoke in time to get away, but I can't slow the sunrise down.
How wishful was I?

While some rise like Kings, you hide like a ghost.
Scared of what you'll find in those hearts, beating so hard, the balance that will bring.
Torn by two lives, with the tendency to roam on the darker side.
I for one will never see the way your eyes could stare right through me

Follow me home, I will lead you from those dark ghosts,
Follow me home, I will lead you from those dark ghosts,
Whose shadows fade in early light.

We are defined by every single moment that shapes our lives.
Old flames will fall like drops in open water, burn no more.
Our lives are defined by every moment when,
Our shadows fade in early light.

These streets spill out like arteries, there is more to life than our enemies.
These streets spill out like arteries, there is more to life than our enemies.
We rise like Kings, while you hide away.
