Tired Pony - Held In the Arms of Your Words

This light at the end of the day

When even the highways seem still

The map in my hands folded shut

There isn't one magical word

But a carnival of them instead

Like an old, silent cinema screen

In this light you are framed classically

Just a painting that hangs in my head

That I know like the back of my hand

And with the sun set, the neon awakes

And the cold colours dance on your skin

Finally the modern makes sense to me

You're effortless, you know you are

And all I want to do

Is let you lead me off into the dusk

Our shadows kiss before we do

Right here in the dark

I revel in the calm before the storm

The garden is haunted by us

And every mistake that we've made

Is at peace coz it led us both here

The thought that just burns into me

Of you in the ink of the night

Is the breath-taking danger of you

You're effortless, you know you are

And all I want to do

Is let you lead me off into the dusk

Our shadows kiss before we do

Right here in the dark

I revel in the calm before the storm

This is life

This is all I want from life

It's the fervour and the tenderness combined.

In the dark,

in the ever-falling dark,

we are anchorless adrift but barely notice

(You're effortless, you know you are

And all I want to do

Is let you lead me off into the dusk

Our shadows kiss before we do

Right here in the dark

I revel in the calm before the storm)

(You're effortless, you know you are

And all I want to do

Is let you lead me off into the dusk

Our shadows kiss before we do

Right here in the dark

I revel in the calm before the storm)

(You're effortless, you know you are

And all I want to do

Is let you lead me off into the dusk)
