Wolf Parade - Against the Day lyrics
[Wolf Parade - Against the Day lyrics]
We've marked our path but we can't get back
And here on the beach
The night believes it is endless
All is calm now
Seconds fade but the centuries remain, love
We are standing
Against the day against the day
You can walk into town
See the same old scene always goin' down
Along the arcade
A thousand flowers bloom and fade
All is calm, love
Every change is a brand new
Upon the brain here we are standing
Against the day against the day
Friend, isn't it so strange
How the only things that change
Are the ones upon the surface?
The restless moss upon the grave
Seems they'll always love the sun
Seems they'll always need one another
Seems they'll always turn and run
At the sight of our blood-covered countenance
All is gone now seconds fade but our hearts
Will still remain, love
They are endless
I will empty my head into the night
Under the gaze of Orion
Hand in her hand, together we'll walk
Into the jaws of the sun, I know
All is gone now
Our only crime was living past our prime
Love and standing
Against the day
