lyrics

In the fire of the summer heat
Make your way to the sacred streets
Far enough that you can’t be reached
In the height of the rolling sun

Curtains rise when you make it back
Hang your coat, hang your holy head
Put your feet up in the table’s edge
Like the child of a chosen man

I can see a light in your eyes
Drowning in a dirty disguise
I can show you how you can breathe
Underwater with your beautiful heart on your sleeve

So you can’t get your story straight
Where you loved, where you full of hate?
Heavy handed, an abandoned heart
Where you whole, where you torn apart?

I can see a light in your eyes
Drowning in a dirty disguise
I can show you how you can breathe
Underwater with your beautiful heart on your sleeve

The day has come to step out of the dark
At the end you can finally start

I can see a light in your eyes
Drowning in a dirty disguise
I can show you how you can breathe
Underwater with your beautiful heart on your sleeve
