How Long Is The Night

If we run far away do you think we will ever die? We'll throw these books in the fire Can you stop the train Cause it some delay? The change machine lied And it's too late to scream How long is the night? It's never over The ribbon was tied But the card was never read The ribbon was crimson The color of the night Can you see the handwriting on the walls And on the autumn leaves that fall "What are we gonna do?" The trees are giving up on us The needle and the thread Won't stitch us to the branch And the night never ends I will never sleep again (I will never even close my eyes) If the sun is on its way Then we will never die And we'll follow these tracks to the sight Now the lungs collapse And the air is getting thin All breath expired Is too late to heal? How long is the night? It's all I ever see anymore But the day was so bright in the pictures In the photo album that you gave me It's all I have to live for I'm falling down And you're not here to break my fall I shut my eyes when you're around I hold my breath to kill the sound of your voice I'm falling down And you're not here to break my fall
