lyrics

Down the graveyard street
To the place where dead ends meet
You can find me there
In the dark with wings to spare

And the line is long
And the earth is far from all you've known
And we're blending faith
And the faith is sinking like a stone

In the walls of mansions
In the heart of random thoughts
In the pulse of action
In the sand beneath the rocks

Where dreams are made
And the horses pound them to the bone
And the pulse it fades
And the black of night will drive you home

Out on makeshift lanes
Out on languished cars that have no names
Out on wings of steel
Out on the curse of how we feel

Take all you can
Now and always till the end
For the great return
Is waiting for you there my friend

And the line is long
And the earth is far from all you've known
And we're blending faith
And the faith is sinking like a stone
