Been staring at the void too long, my blue skies have turned black
And the creepers that you cut down from our walls have all grown back
Tomorrow runs ahead just like an old way through the wood
It's been trodden many times before but it's no clearer understood
Where on earth it's taking us or how we're meant to choose
When it forks around the bend and either way we lose
In my head I play the part of a lover who was stung
An innocent abandoned in the dark when he was young
When I see more clearly through the lies of my little play
Well, I was just as much the wolf out hunting for its prey
Oh, love, I know I've let you down all the promises I made
And with all that anger I'll go to my grave
I've traveled far off countries, I've seen many far out things
I would never love this man-shaped cage you're shaking off its skin
Got a picture of the little boys he reached towards the sun
But now more sand's gone through the glass than there's still left to run
And when the lamp is burning low and the stitches slip their seams
Into that darkness we'll go with our dreams
