Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What will you do when the storm comes your way?
Will you run to the high ground or battle the fray?
Over horizons, our future will break
After the fall, join me at the wake
[Verse 2]
What of the weave, and what of the match
The thread that we tied we meant to detach?
Tangled-up wires, tripping the light
Ending the wrongs too late to be right
[Chorus]
Go, leave
Don't wait up for one half of a dream
Don't stay
When your world isn't all that it seems
[Verse 3]
As we gather the nets in, we kept at bay
Now the tide'll come calling, bearing what's left away
We took what we could, and if that's no relief
It takes one to know one
To catch a thief
[Verse 4]
It should have been me, I said all along
There's no God in heaven that could get it this wrong
Let's run while we still can, but please don't object
I'll meet you in this world, see you in the next
[Chorus]
Go, leave
Don't wait up for one half of a dream
Don't stay
When your world isn't all that it seems
[Chorus]
Go, leave
Don't wait up for one half of a dream
Don't stay
When your world isn't all that it seems
[Outro]
Hmm-mm-mm
Hmm-mm-mm
