lyrics

Here were the rain makes me feel safe
Where the drowning come to ask God for a better place
Where the chains and the coil are best kept locked away
I will not sleep until you've lead me astray

Shorter distances for shuffled hearts
The jury for this one has been out from the start
You won't get left behind
Not until they've seen you hit their stride

Shorter distances for shuffled hearts
The jury for this one has been out from the start
And counting fingers gives way to equations
Another way to pull the trigger on my patience

Chorus

This is the last of me
Out of that moonlit window
Where the wind doesn't blow and the sea does not know
The mirror is still closed

My heart is convinced it needs proper expansion
So I flooded the tunnels with unrelenting passion
The cracks and fractures are shallow enough to mend
But deep underwater there's no air left to ascend

The ground promptly marked me its property
Now I bleed like the rest
Damn this monarchy
The sea did try to gild this pale crust
but the river baptized me in bitter rust

Shorter distances for shuffled hearts
The jury for this one has been out from the start
What was received was then swiftly denied
But I shall mind my step until the day I die

CHORUS

This is the last of me
Out of that moonlit window
Where the wind doesn't blow and the sea does not know
The mirror is still closed

(Between the weeping and pretending,
How do you decide what's beggining and what's ending?)
