about

#3 in the Physical Truth series

lyrics

The light is falling with the waves like a grudge to bear
It lingers for a while
And when you hold it you feel brave even though you're not
For you are naive
Love is a weapon here in the hands of thieves
Who couldn't find their own
I miss the mornings when we'd wake with a physical truth
To face our troubled days

What do you love more?
The thought of sitting still or leaving through the courtyard
What is there left to do
But climb the coast with credit cards and sleep in empty houses

I've got a feeling death is real but I can't believe
That everything just ends
But I take comfort in the thought that one day we'll stop
Cycling through the age

What do you love more?
The thought of sitting still or leaving through the courtyard
What is there left to do
But climb the coast with credit cards and sleep in empty houses
