We sway like brittle branches One gust and to earth we come I’m grinning because I know I’m grinning just because Taking orders never suited me Saying no just for the thrill But tonight we’re moving slowly While the cavalry moves in for the kill Moves in for the kill Moves in for the kill I’m tired and I’m sore (sore, sore, sore, sore) I’m not so young anymore (anymore, anymore) Worn down, but I imagine (sore, sore, sore, sore) This uniform stays in fashion We’ve poured ourselves in these sweet white dying dogs Some nights not kissing Some nights just because If we hear a crash We can only expect the worst But tonight we’re moving fast While the party resumes the search Resumes the search Resumes the search I’m tired and I’m sore (sore, sore, sore, sore) I’m not so proud anymore (anymore, anymore) Worn down, but I’ve decided (sore, sore, sore, sore) It’s open casket you’re all invited My head in your lap from the wandering blackout The touch of your hand, you’re the last one to back out There’s nothing to argue, there’s only a title The worst’s yet to come well the worst’s not invited I make separate fists while I swallowed the pride (So let’s embrace the twilight While burning out the limelight) I am haunting an old roll of telephone wires (So let’s embrace the twilight While burning out the limelight) It’s not how it was but it’s not getting lighter (So let’s embrace the twilight While burning out the limelight) The weight is immaculate, the depth is inspired (So let’s embrace the twilight While burning out the limelight) It’s let in, eyes tired (So let’s embrace the twilight While burning out the limelight) I hold waste, stop fires (So let’s embrace the twilight While burning out the limelight) I want hope, faith higher (So let’s embrace the twilight While burning out the limelight) I’m lost now, loss tires (So let’s embrace the twilight While burning out the limelight)
