We lie to keep alive the secret
To hold the past in place
[Pre-Chorus]
The sun at work
No love no birth
Just shining on your face
[Verse 2]
We die to keep our souls as features
We hang them from our walls
[Pre-Chorus]
The moon asleep
No love to keep
The sting of life involved
[Chorus]
Just like ships in the night
Promising to collide
Well, I'm casting myself aside
And the shoreline alight
Where the beaches divide
I can see it outside on the shrines
In the air in the air
[Verse 3]
In timе undone no trace of one
Will bеar the guts of day
[Pre-Chorus]
The night will burn
Its wax and wick
The stars will leave their stage
[Chorus]
Just like ships in the night
Promising to collide
Well, I'm casting myself
And the shoreline alight
Where the beaches divide
I can see it outside on the shrines
In the air
Just like ships in the night
Promising to collide
Well, I'm casting myself aside
And the shoreline alight
Where the streets with the shrines shine bright
And I'm breaking into the breach of the air
In the air in the air
