Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In this shattered land
The moon is rising up in blood
We try and understand
Quiet evenings call
The hums of thunder rumble in
Stars from silver orbits fall
I had an open heart
I believe I was told to guard it
Instead, I let it break apart
See the desert glow
Cross this fairyland
The sparks are flying like the torch you hold in your hand
[Chorus]
What happened to the honesty?
Where is the cold hard truth?
Can you swallow what you chew?
[Verse 2]
All this tragedy
Yeah, we don't have regrets
We let them wash away
With our sheer ignorance
My spirit's bound
And it's tied up in chains
Taking flight, crashing like a paper plane in the rain
[Chorus]
What happened to the honesty?
Where is the cold hard truth?
Can you swallow what you chew?
[Bridge]
Father, Father, I bid you adieu
The man out of time, I'll see you soon
Father, Father, I bid you adieu
Every day I miss him
[Chorus]
What happened to the honesty?
Where is the cold hard truth?
Can you swallow what you chew?
[Outro]
Father, Father, I bid you adieu
The man out of time, I'll see you soon
Father, Father, I bid you adieu
Somewhere up there singing the blues
Never out of tune
