Papillon

This room has a window that calls
That tells you you've been there before
A sundial in the sky
The only reminder of the days passing by

You, my old solitary friend
For you I would wait 'til the end
Just running down the time
With all of our yesterdays left far behind

Your debts have all been paid
So go on and walk away
I hope out there, you'll stay on
Where we won't cry no more

The truth turns the needle through North
And trusts us to follow its course
But sometimes it's the lie
That takes the day trembling in all its denial

Now only one ruling is left
When no one believes they'll be next
And trails too far to find
If every damn stranger's got something to hide

But guards are overthrown
The way is wide open for all who'd go
It's never been so close now
And there we won't cry no more

There we won't cry no more
There we won't cry no more
There we won't cry no more
There we won't cry no more
