Because you know it’s always midnight
In the basement of the soul
lyrics
There’s something sinking in the water
So I watch it go
All the treasure that we gathered
I should know
Because you know it’s always midnight
In the basement of the soul
As you gather all the pictures
Time that we stole
And you were always burning bridges
I remember - I recall
But you were shooting first, asking question later - if at all
And all the waiting
Will soon be over
It’s only water and salt
And all the fighting
All the crying
It’s only water and salt
It’s not your fault
Never going to make it better.
And you know that I’ll never sell
They say no tree can grow to heaven
Until it’s roots reach down to hell
In the garden of the demons
In the gutter of the night
‘Till you see the shadows of the lost ones
The first blood of the fight
And plead and beg and twist and turn and tear the past apart again again again ..
But you were praying to the sky that’s burning golden ashes thats a start, again that’s a start ..
And all the waiting
Will soon be over
It’s only water and salt
And all the fighting
All the crying
It’s only water and salt
It’s not your fault
It’s not your fault
It’s not your fault
