These empty hands Is all I got The line of life A blueprint of murderous times A thousand years Straight from hell Burning through me Like a darkness you’ll never see Guess it’s too late to understand The lesson of the continent The line of people in the snow The broken toys at the plateau Shoot me to your secret skies Keep me by your side Hold on we must reach the shore Too late we’re left behind
An empty shoe In promised land Under the stars Babylon’s done tonight Number two I’m here with you In this headless dream That keeps rising over the waves I guess I’ll never get to learn The lesson of the continent The yellow stars, the leaving trains The children sitting by the rails Shoot me to your secret skies Keep me by your side Hold on we must reach the shore Too late we’re left behind
