Closer

Just hold onto that silver line
Where stars explode in the night sky
Birds in flight sing of broken spirits
Bygones of past lives hang in the branches
When dawn breaks, blow it all away
Until they stand up and confess
Blow it all away
Is your heart still beating in your chest?
Blow it all away
Just hold onto that silver line
Where stars explode in the night sky
No one’s the hero here
There are no heroes
Until they stand up and confess
Blow it all away
Is your heart still beating in your chest?
Blow it all away
When dawn breaks
And they stand up and confess
Blow it all away
Sing your sad songs
Write your sad words
No one hangs on your rope anymore
Saw the northern lights
Thought my time was up
When the drink goes in
The devil shows up
I’ll be with the boys
Lining up the block
A mouth full of blood
And a split lip
Saw the northern lights
Thought my time was up
When the drink goes in
The devil shows up
