Permanent Way

One life fades
 Let another shine its place
 It's just the moving of colour
 My hands don't play the same
 But they'll try anyway
 Each accusing the other
 You can do what you want
 But I'm making my own way
 Either you will or you won't
 If you count yourself in
 ♪
 If daylight breaks and you're still miles away
 You should move into cover
 I'll try to stay in a more permanent way
 Can we keep to each other?
 Where have you been all this time?
 ♪
 Would you give one more day
 If you're able I wonder
 Before they kill
 One more place at the table I've wondered
 A penny for your thoughts
 So many fall before they meet the shore

 If daylight breaks and you're still miles away
