Lyrics

All the same take me away
We're dead to the world
The child gave
Thought to the poet's words
Gave comfort to the fallen
Heartfelt, lovelorn
Remaining
Yet still uninvited
Those words scented my soul
Lonely soul, ocean soul
It's not the monsters under your bed
It is the man next door
That makes you fear
Makes you cry
Makes you cry for the child
All the wars are fought among those lonely men
Unarmed, unscarred
I don't wanna die a scarless man
A lonely soul
Tell me now what to do
I studied silence learn the music
I joined the sinful to regain innocence
Heaven queen, cover me
In all that blue
Little boy, such precious joy
Is dead to the world
Heaven queen, carry me
Away from all pain
All the same take me away
We're dead to the world
Dead, silent, constant
Yet always changing
My favourite view of this world
As he died, he will return to die in me again
Weaving the cloth, giving birth to century child
Who gave his life not for the world but for me
Innocence reborn once more
Heaven queen, carry me
Away from all pain
All the same take me away
We're dead to the world
Heaven queen, cover me
In all that blue
Little boy, such precious joy
Is dead to the world
Heaven queen, carry me
Away from all pain
All the same take me away
We're dead to the world
We're dead to the world
