lyrics

When the world falls into pieces
Put your breath inside of mine
Lay your head on my shoulder
The last place where you won't fall apart

Fear is deep, wide, and dark
As the sea under your feet
In a downtown
I gave you my word
Light will shine on your face

Go take the road my child
Hope is a star under the moon
Her light is as pale as my fingers
Holding tight your fragile hand
I scream and shout your name
Letters on newspapers, magazines
I cry out so loud
Nobody's weeping with me now

When the night is getting closer
When it’s giving shade
And moving like the ocean
Wave by wave
It’s taking last breath
Here's the place
Here's the moment
Grains of sand
Dead seed of life
Cry of the seagulls
Whispers of wave
The only sound
Flock of the birds
The body on the ocean shore
You gave us living hearts
But it’s still been stone since the thousand years

It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago. modestwriggles
