Century After Century - Idlewild

Since you’re breathing

Is it all that space can fill

So just by looking in

Ill be looking still

(find and follow stories well)

You make it except for

A newspaper

The headline’s telling me

That fortune favours the brave

Ive never been known to be that brave

What i want is on its way out

All i needed was an easier way to stay

Walking around the city

As the light fades

Is that all that you remain

I’m thinking about these promises

That i have ever made

I know what they will never say

I know what they will never say

Century after century may remain

And if i need to remember

That the entire earth is outside this window

So close the windows

Keep the curtains shut forever

And if i need to remember

The entire earth is outside this room

So close the windows

Close the windows

Isn’t it romantic to be romantic

When you dont understand what you love

Or if a word like that could ever mean anything

But what you want is on its way out

I didn’t hear

Cheerleading for creative writers

Your cheekbones

Dont taste of anything at all

Its on its way out

Its just an easier way to stay

Talking about a city

That the light mades

Is it all that you remain

Its the same story told

But its these stories that dont fade

I know what they will never say

I know what they will never say

Century after century may remain

Is it all that you remain

Is it all that you remain

Is it all that you remain

Is it all that you remain

Is it all that you remain

(i know what they will never say)

Is it all that you remain

(i know what they will never say)

Is it all that you remain

(i know what they will never say)

Is it all that you remain

(i know what they will never say)

Is it all that you remain

Is it all that you remain
