Sleeping At Last - A Skeleton of Something More lyrics

In the darkest of nights the city of lights
Will pour unto us creeping inside
Through our sleepy eyes contagiously bright

Like sunlight and rain
Flooding through the veins of wilted vines

But love travels like a rumor here
Losing form with every ear
A skeleton of something more

But waking seems an awful dream

We'll be waiting for the night
Waiting for the night to come and rescue us
Feet off the ground

Besides, we're living in this house of cards
That pulls and pushes with the air
Fearing a feather to the earth
Could destroy it and us inside unaware!

All we want is something more
To dream about and to adore
All we need is a little place
To close our eyes, to end this chase
The living are moving gracefully
And painfully rushing ahead
While unraveling the most essential thread
Of the fabric that covers us

We'll be waiting for the night
Waiting for the night
To always come and rescue us
Feet off the ground
Our hearts become magnetized

The warmth of the sun
Is melting the snowflakes
Before they hit the ground
