When your eyes tear in the morning,
light runs from you.
twists around
changing hues
When you've had warning,
when your virtue
crumbles before you
When dawn fades away,
or when they hurt you...
Your flag flies
tattered and grey
When the hatred you've kept at bay
becomes longing,teardrops ensue,
Watery stains on
portraits you drew.
When the tide calls for you
spear pierces your side
it drains from you
there is nowhere to hide
I will run to you
I will save you
steer mercy to ground
You have rescued me
I will shine for you
Unleash the Heavens,
before we are drowned.
I will run to you
we will start anew
our own island,
alone in the sound
You have rescued me
in the morning
with the love
we have found.

When your eyes tear in the morning,
light runs from you.
twists around

When you've had warning,
when your virtue
crumbles before you
When dawn fades away,
or when they hurt you...
Your flag flies
tattered and grey
When the hatred you've kept at bay
becomes longing,teardrops ensue,
Watery stains on
portraits you drew.
When the tide calls for you
spear pierces your side
it drains from you
there is nowhere to hide
I will run to you
I will save you
steer mercy to ground
You have rescued me
I will shine for you
Unleash the Heavens,
before we are drowned.
I will run to you
we will start anew
our own island,
alone in the sound
You have rescued me
in the morning
with the love
we have found.
