guilt & relief

and, finally; when they quote the storm

i understand what they mean.

lyrics

at last, at last
the days will pass
away
not stay, anymore

at last, at last
the knives in your back
will fade
away
for sure

and as the dream-boat cuts the wild waters;
and the sky, she delivers what you sought from her
as you careen, will you give it what you outta?

but the truth's harder to catch
than the wind on your breath.
and the salt in your lungs
tastes like lies, on your tongue

at last, at last
the sky won't hang
upon
your weary back

at last, at last
the stars won't crane
to watch
you as
you pass

at last, at last
the days will pass
away
not stay, anymore

at last, at last
the knives in your back
will fade
away
for sure.
