lyrics

High up here
Stand on the shore and count the nights
That pass you by
And circulate around you like waves ride round your feet
You will wait it to break
As your plans begin to shake
And then everything will move as one as the crash course is set to hit the sun

And you keep walking on the frozen rivers
Cut across the forest on fire
I'll keep a distance from the rubble as the sparks light the fuse leaving us rewired
You keep walking on the frozen rivers
Cut across the forest on fire
I'll dance across a skyline of burning views I had admired with you

The clouds burst and I'm holding on
To every last bit of us I grabbed from the fire
And now our ocean is in flight
A downward facing sea leaning over us
The clocks counting down the nights
Oh, we will wait for it to break
As your plans all go to waste
And then everything will move as one as our last breath hangs right before the sun

And you keep walking on the frozen rivers
Cut across the forest on fire
I'll keep a distance from the rubble as the sparks light the fuse leaving us rewired
You keep walking on the frozen rivers
Cut across the forest on fire
I'll dance across a skyline of burning views I had admired with you

There's a fire deep in our continent
It's been raging for days, it's imminent
But you've never been the one, you've never been the one
To fall into the mouth of the climbing sun
I've never been the one, I've never been the one

I don't think we're done
