lyrics
i know i shouldn't go there
it's a disaster in there
now that i'm thinking of you
and as i sank through the salt
he pulled me into this boat
but i've been floating without you
burn down the lighthouse
burn it to the ground
there's nothing left now
there is proof in some kind
of focus, in black and white
how could it actually be?
i don't want to sit and talk
no i can't deal with the thought
that i am here, and you're not
burn down the lighthouse
burn it to the ground
there's nothing left now
but broken glass and photographs
they run away with the most
as both the servant and host
the greedy fingers of time
no-one says
what i should do with the rest
the inescapable mess
i guess i best exist
it's a disaster in there
now that i'm thinking of you
and as i sank through the salt
he pulled me into this boat
but i've been floating without you
burn down the lighthouse
burn it to the ground
there's nothing left now
there is proof in some kind
of focus, in black and white
how could it actually be?
i don't want to sit and talk
no i can't deal with the thought
that i am here, and you're not
burn down the lighthouse
burn it to the ground
there's nothing left now
but broken glass and photographs
they run away with the most
as both the servant and host
the greedy fingers of time
no-one says
what i should do with the rest
the inescapable mess
i guess i best exist
