[Verse 1]
This could be the saddest dusk I've ever seen
Turn to a miracle, high-alive
My mind is racing, as it always will
My hands tired, my heart aches
I'm half a world away, here in my head
[Refrain]
Sworn to go it alone and hold it along
Haul it along and hold it
Go it alone, hold it along
And hold
[Verse 2]
Oh, the lonely deep sit hollow
Half a world, half a world away
My shoes are gone, my life spent
I'd had too much to drink
I didn't think
And I didn't think of you
I guess that's all I needed
[Refrain]
To go it alone and hold it along
And haul it along and hold it
Blackbirds, backwards, forwards and fall
And hold
[Verse 3]
Oh, this lonely world is wasted
Pathetic eyes, high-alive
And blind the tide that's turned to see
The storm, it came up strong
It shook the trees and blew away our fear
I couldn't even hear
[Refrain]
To go it alone, hold it along
Haul it along and hold it
Go it alone and hold it along
And hold
Go it alone and hold it along
Haul it along and hold it
Blackbirds, backwards, forwards and fall
And hold
[Outro]
Oh, and this could be the saddest dusk I've ever seen
Turn to a miracle, high-alive
My mind is racing, as it always will
My hands tired, my heart aches
I'm half a world away
To go
