lyrics

this welcoming ghost won't say what he knows
the eyes of our lovers won't help us to move
the weight of the the earth that burdened our fathers
that they passed on to us

I didn't see us feeding the masses
with just our good luck
our memorized prayers, songs on repeat
no hail marias, just keep breathing deep

this exiting train of thoughts in a daze
to the sunset we go,
forget what we know
it's the ends of the earth, the edge of the ground

we had to be lost
to know what we found:
the old fading out,
while we caved in

now is the time

I said what you said exact and in key
"coincide with yourself, sell yourself to the deep"
this is just a rerun, it will happen again
I hope you will know what is best

now is the time
