Nine years and a day
A blanket of dismay
Has failed to wither in the sun
A sun that does deceive
On the night before the eve
When two will blacken into one
What they say is true
A visit back to you
Will cool the flames in which I drown
Everything to lose, life is what I choose
And I don't want to let you down
A decade on the run, what cannot be undone
Has aged and leveled what was new
An innocence of fear, what cannot disappear
Has forged a life of cruel review
What they say is true
A visit back to you
Will cool the flames in which I drown
Everything to lose, life is what I choose
And I don't want to let you down
Well tomorrow we may be not
But as long as we gave it a shot
Whatever is to be will be
But I know you
Nine years and a day
A blanket of dismay
Has failed to wither in the sun
What they say is true
A visit back to you
Will cool the flames in which I drown
Everything to lose, life is what I choose
And I don't want to let you down
