our tower burns in the night we were burdened by the light while others fell oh well the stranded clung to the rocks cold and cut off from the flock that sank below so slow I told my wife I'd find a better life we'd leave behind this stormy shore for more this job's a rope 'round the throat water's leaking in the boat we can't go on for long where are you I've seen the dawn turn away the moon's drowning in the bay we left our lives on the land footprints swallowed by the sand we won't be found I lived my life for the church lost it with a fatal lurch it's gone all wrong so wrong my daughter floats in reach can I breathe here once for three we are too small so small
