Lyrics

[00:00.91] Breathe deep and easy, swallow this pride.
[00:07.25] Stare at my shaking hands through bone-dry, blood shot eyes.
[00:12.86]
[00:13.86] Clock strip the hours, I count the miles.
[00:20.04] Will you be there waiting, awake until sunrise.
[00:26.79] traveled I have in darkness, for what seems like days,
[00:32.28] I, come from the sinkholes, collapsed under this weight.
[00:37.73]
[00:38.83] I know not your sorrow, but I know mine,
[00:44.62] So say you'll stay and dance with me tonight.
[00:48.66] In the glow of twilight, our world is finally calm.
[00:54.59] I felt it complete me, when the stars give way to dawn.
[01:00.58] A language universal, but I speak not its tongue.
[01:06.44] this Is a night that spans forever, or a dawn that never comes.
[01:13.26] I have traveled in darkness, for what seems like days,
[01:19.03] I, come from the sinkholes, collapsed under this weight.
[01:24.83]
[01:25.86] I know not your sorrow, but I know mine,
[01:31.50] So say you'll stay and dance with me tonight.
[01:35.93]
[01:41.80] Tomorrow we might wake in servitude and silence
[01:47.54] I will give you everything if only you would have me
[01:53.28] Tomorrow we will sweat and toil,
[01:56.28] Our hands will quiver caked with soil,
[01:59.33] Tomorrow we'll give it one last chance,
[02:02.02] But tonight we dance,
[02:03.45] But tonight we dance!
[02:08.54]
[02:17.30] And for this, I travel in darkness, for what seems like days,
[02:23.95] I, come from the sinkholes, collapsed under this weight.
[02:30.53] I know not your sorrow, but I know mine,
[02:36.21] Just say you'll stay and dance with me tonight.
