about

Written by: Jesse Sykes Spooky American Music BMI (adm by BMG)

lyrics

Could you grow a new heart?
And could you run the distance?
In the time that it takes,
Before it all fell apart?

We fell through the cracks,
stole the sheets and burned the maps,
watched the smoke fly from the stacks,
before it all fell apart.

Particles out on the fringe,
there's a heaviness this stillness brings.
Those twisted palms, oh, how they swing,
telling tales, of young breathless things.

Things that move on,
left wandering where the mystery's gone,
we made it 'cross that frozen pond,
before it all fell apart.
