1984 – A Continent Away lyrics
The nice nest we’ve built
Now that mess it lights it up
What we’ve done wrong
Don’t you feel we’re on the run
I don’t know why we try again
Questions/answers always the same
It’s gotta be done
This split of our tongues
My liver is flooded
By alcohol and tears
Oh I won’t go home
Before you get out of me
In the streets of a new town
Everything seems a bit more
Manageable, above the loss
Oh the guilt is far from home
Blink at noon, I miss our room
Our mouths are so close and yet our souls
Are a continent away
There was a nest of ours
There were messes for hours
I regret both are gone
Our hugs in the dawn
I feel drowned in ether
I feel drowned in ether
In salty waves I lie
A lovely way to hide
If I sometimes feel my heart sinks
I know my heart forgets too
The more I age, the less I think
The less I think, the more I fool
Many lives that pierced me through
Many eyes printed too
On mine
They’ll fade, not yours
Blink at noon, I miss our room
Our mouths are so close and yet our souls
Are a continent away
I know you’ll shiver again but I hold you
Now that mess it lights it up
What we’ve done wrong
Don’t you feel we’re on the run
I don’t know why we try again
Questions/answers always the same
It’s gotta be done
This split of our tongues
My liver is flooded
By alcohol and tears
Oh I won’t go home
Before you get out of me
In the streets of a new town
Everything seems a bit more
Manageable, above the loss
Oh the guilt is far from home
Blink at noon, I miss our room
Our mouths are so close and yet our souls
Are a continent away
There was a nest of ours
There were messes for hours
I regret both are gone
Our hugs in the dawn
I feel drowned in ether
I feel drowned in ether
In salty waves I lie
A lovely way to hide
If I sometimes feel my heart sinks
I know my heart forgets too
The more I age, the less I think
The less I think, the more I fool
Many lives that pierced me through
Many eyes printed too
On mine
They’ll fade, not yours
Blink at noon, I miss our room
Our mouths are so close and yet our souls
Are a continent away
I know you’ll shiver again but I hold you
