lyrics:
ten thousand years apart
we reached out for hope one day
to live in this world we saved
now can i convince you to stay?
we wake up collapsed on a field of sand
or are they ashes of who we used to be?
but my dreams say that if i drift away
then i’ll meet her again someday
(ten thousand years apart
we reached out for hope one day
to live in this world we saved
now can i convince you to stay?
we wake up collapsed on a field of sand
or are they ashes of who we used to be?
but my dreams say that if i drift away…)
eternal light
(we wanted to be alive)
waiting for us at sea
(there’s nobody left to find)
are we out of time?
(give in to your trembling)
this is the shore where i’ll sleep
(but maybe we’ve still got time)
we become one
joining at our flesh and teeth
at high tide, the waves wash away
all the bones we found underneath
do you remember the promise we made
wandering through the ruins of yesterday?
through your arms, i slowly dissipate
scattering to places you cannot reach
one spirit as we are set free
