1980

(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh...) It’s a heavy sky, it’s a long way down I’m wearing the weight of this silent town You don’t see the tho s inside my chest And I don’t see the ghosts that won’t let you rest We’re staring through the glass, so cold and clear But we’re miles apart while we’re standing here. Tell me, would you take the flame? If I called out your secret name? If I could open up the door... I’d make a deal with the rolling thunder I’d tear the stars and the earth asunder Just to feel the way your heart is beating Just to stop the time that’s always fleeting Oh, I’d be you, and you’d be me We’d see the things we’re scared to see Is there enough room for the both of us? In a world built on shadows and broken trust You’re hiding the bruises I want to heal But you can’t understand what you cannot feel Let’s swap the breath, let’s swap the blood Before we’re buried in the rising flood. I’d make a deal with the rolling thunder I’d tear the stars and the earth asunder Just to feel the way your heart is beating Just to stop the time that’s always fleeting Oh, I’d be you, and you’d be me We’d see the things we’re scared to see. Stepping up the stairs... Breathing in the air... If I only could... If I only could... MAKE THE DEAL! Running up, I’m running up... Exchange the soul. Exchange the pain.
