lyrics

If You Want Me

The evening left her fingerprints
On the mornings tired, heavy eyelids
And the blackmailed trees keep quiet under a threatening sky

And the moon has lost her way it seems
Illuminating all the brisk daydreams
Escaping from a thousand frantic lives

But the clocks would stop and the boss would say
Go home there's nothing to do today
If you want me

There's a plague of strangers on the underground
There's violence in this restless crowd
Three hundred hearts beating out of time

And in the shadow of some imaginary bird
Six hundred eyes are skyward turned
Frightened of what they might or might not find

But the trains on time and it's all aboard
To the promised-land, to a better world
If you want me

I would disappear
I would know pain no I would know no fear
I would die a thousand times only to rise again
If you want me
