Violet Shore

Glass towers rise with shadows all around us
This city is an old flaw
Can't swallow all the sin

We don't realize the curses that become us
But you can't deny the capture we're in

Oh the prize and praises of the war
I could never leave the violet shore
I could never leave the fallen
Oh my eyes betray an opening door
But I could never leave this violet shore
I could never leave the folly

The highs you've won holding in a sad song
Yea it's in your blood
Is that all you've got to give?

Does it hurt too much just to let the dark go
Drop the stones you throw
And let a little light in

Oh the prize and praises of the war
I could never leave the violet shore
I could never leave the fallen
Oh my eyes betray an opening door
But I could never leave this violet shore
I could never leave the folly

I see the firing squad
I know my time is coming
Hear the armies march
Oh my my, oh my my

I see the firing squad
I know my time is coming
Hear the armies march
Oh my my, oh my my

Oh the prize and praises of the war
I could never leave the violet shore
I could never leave the fallen
Oh my eyes betray an opening door
But I could never leave this violet shore
I could never leave the folly
