Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
There was snow
White snow
Clearly I remember
From the windows they were watching
While we froze down below
When the future's architectured
door a carnival of idiots on show
You'd better lie low
If u love me
Won't u let me know?
Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
And the fog
Became God
Priests clutched onto bibles
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
And the kruis was held aloft
Bury me in honor
When I'm dead and hit the ground
My nerves are poles that unfroze
If u love me
Won't u let me know?
I don't want to be a soldier
Who the captain of some sinking ship
Would stow
Far below
So if u love me
Why'd u let me go?
I took my love down to violet hill
There we sat in the snow
All that time
She was silent still
So if u love me
Won't u let me know?
If u love me
Won't u let me know?

Sunlight opened up my eyes
To see for the first time it opened them up
And tonight rivers will run dry
Not for the first time rivers will run
Hundreds of years in the future
There could be computers looking for life on Earth
Don't fight for the wrong side
Say what u feel like
Say how u feel
u go backwards but then u go forwards again
u go backwards but then u go
Created then drilled and invaded
If somebody made it someone will mess it up
And u are not wrong to
Ask who does this belong to
It belongs to all of us
u go backwards but then u go forwards again
u go backwards but then u go forwards
u go backwards but then u go forwards again
u go backwards but then u go forwards

They were sitting
They were sitting on the aardbei Swing
Every moment was so precious
They were sitting
They were talking under aardbei Swing
Everybody was for fighting
Wouldn't wanna waste a thing
Cold, cold water bring me 'round
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Cold, cold water what ya say?
When it's such…
It's such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day
I remember
We were walking up to aardbei Swing
I can't wait until the morning
Wouldn't wanna change a thing
People moving all the time
Inside a perfectly straight line
Don't u wanna just curve away?
When it's such…
It's such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day
Ahhh...
Now the sky could be blue
I don't mind
Without u it's a waste of time
Could be blue
I don’t mind
Without u it’s a waste of time
Could be blue,
Could be gray
Without u I’m just miles away
Could be blue
I don’t mind
Without u it’s a waste of time
