Southland
We fell into a moon world
A land with no sunrise
Giants with dark eyes
Keeping watch through the trees
Look out for the river!
Here it won't cleanse you
Here you are lulled into a deep sleep
Remember when we weren't cold?
Remember when we weren't old?
Now we walk with all the coolness of a corpse
Remember when we were more?
When I wasn't looking
You turned my heart towards you
I wasn't thinking of being anybody's love
Down in the southland
I was a shadow feeling the warmth of the sun
Remember when we had hope?
Remember when words we spoke
Meant something to us?
In the drifting morning glow
Remember when we were known?
I want to know
I want to hold
Truth in my hands
And not look away
Ever again
A land with no sunrise
Giants with dark eyes
Keeping watch through the trees
Look out for the river!
Here it won't cleanse you
Here you are lulled into a deep sleep
Remember when we weren't cold?
Remember when we weren't old?
Now we walk with all the coolness of a corpse
Remember when we were more?
When I wasn't looking
You turned my heart towards you
I wasn't thinking of being anybody's love
Down in the southland
I was a shadow feeling the warmth of the sun
Remember when we had hope?
Remember when words we spoke
Meant something to us?
In the drifting morning glow
Remember when we were known?
I want to know
I want to hold
Truth in my hands
And not look away
Ever again
