Spent too much time playing 'round
A drunk messiah, falling down
Like children lost, like children wandering
Directionless
Troubled times, it's all I hear
And troubled time is done right here
Open your eyes, open your heart and mind
Let in the light
Chorus:So dry your tears when darkness falls
(raccoon circles 'round the blue)
I'll kiss your face when daylight comes
(see your sunbeams shining through)
Lost another day today
Didn't have the words to say,
"The past is past,"
"tomorrow's fantasy."
"Right now is all"
"I've got to make it right"
Didn't see you again last night.
It's sinking in
When will this vessel crack?
I'll drown with you.
Chorus:So dry your tears as darkness falls
(mascara melting in the gloom)
I'll kiss your lips when daylight comes
(and dust motes dance around the room)
Bridge:Nothing seems to make it better
Nothing seems to make it worse
Nothing holding us together
Like clouds before the sun disperse
Holding on makes it feel better
Holding on just makes it worse
Holding on, it slips right through your hands
And crashes down, creation in reverse.
Chorus:So dry your tears when darkness falls
(we'll make it through, I promise you)
I'll kiss your face 'cause it's my job
(to reassure the worst is through)
So dry your tears as darkness falls
(and raccoon storms surround the blue)
I'll kiss your face, I'll kiss your mouth
(and in the end I'll drown with you)
So dry you tears when darkness falls...
