As Evening Falls - Christian Death, R. Williams

Here we are now

In this god awful state

Where there is nothing to say

Let’s loose ourselves in a picture

Dressed for the occasion

Then lock it away, lock it away

Keep asking questions

There’s bound to be answers

If anyone’s left here

To answer at all

They said we were too weak

You said we were too strong

And I said: «I wish you were here

As evening falls around us.

We could use words like blind.

As evening falls around us.»

Words spread too quickly

Like someone’s reflection

In somebody’s eyes

So save your kisses for some other sunday

I’m cold and the air’s getting thin

Is this the distance,

that we’ve always hoped for

Or is this our cue?

We go on dancing

Until our hands fall through

The mirror on the wall

And I said: «I wish you were here

As evening falls around us.

We could use words like blind.

As evening falls around us.»
