Without a Flame
You close the door
I watch you walk out leaving me in the room
Then in the school hall
People looking 'round for your picture on the wall
I don't understand this
I'm fearing the worst of it
These days
The local boys don't speak your name
And the lives of our family
They walk this street without a flame
I hear your voice
But I know by now I'll be waking up soon
Then in the living room
You're looking at me trying to accept the truth
We can't carry all this
Though your ghost won't get lost in the piece
I'm subdued
With the world telling me all the things I need to try and do
I get by
But if I'm honest I don't know how to
They call to you
They pray for you
These days
The local boys don't speak your name
And the lives of our family
They walk this street without a flame
Without a flame
I watch you walk out leaving me in the room
Then in the school hall
People looking 'round for your picture on the wall
I don't understand this
I'm fearing the worst of it
These days
The local boys don't speak your name
And the lives of our family
They walk this street without a flame
I hear your voice
But I know by now I'll be waking up soon
Then in the living room
You're looking at me trying to accept the truth
We can't carry all this
Though your ghost won't get lost in the piece
I'm subdued
With the world telling me all the things I need to try and do
I get by
But if I'm honest I don't know how to
They call to you
They pray for you
These days
The local boys don't speak your name
And the lives of our family
They walk this street without a flame
Without a flame
