Hear the sirens
Hear the circus so profound
I hear the sirens
More and more in this here town
Let me catch my breath to breathe
Then reach across the bend
Just to know we're safe
I am a grateful man
This light is pit, alive
And I can see you clear
Oh, I could take your hand
And feel your breath
For feel that someday will be over
I pull you close
So much to lose
Knowing that nothing lasts forever
I didn't care
Before you were here
A distant laughter
With the everafter
But all things change
Let this remain
Hear the sirens
Covering distance in the night
The sound echoing closer
Will they come for me next time?
For every choice, mistake I made
Is not my plan
Or to send you in the arms of another man
And if you choose to stay
I'll wait, I'll understand
Oh, it's a fragile thing
This life we lead
If I think too much
I can't get over
When by the grace
By which we live our lives
With death over our shoulders
Want you to know
That should I go
I always loved you
Held you high above too
I studied your face
The fear goes away
It's a fragile thing
This life we lead
If I think too much
I can't get over
When by the graves
By which we live our lives
With death over our shoulders
Want you to know
that should I go
I always loved you
Held you high above too
I studied your face
The fear goes away
Ahh, ooh
Ahh
