Light This City A Grotesque Reflection Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You've arrived
And it feels as though you've been here for some time
You've been here all along
Now you're growing tired
Try to rest under bright, chilling imminence
Trapped where sands pile up behind you
Drinking of a grotesque reflection
Dying to be carried away

[Chorus]
The end won't begin when you climb aboard
We have always been his passengers
In the ultimate sense
We were born to roam
We have always been his passengers
In the ultimate sense
We were born to roam
Born to roam Kharon's shores

[Verse 2]
Do you know what time it was when you lost your shadow?
It's sinking in
It happens all over again
Do you know what time it was when you lost your shadow?
It's sinking in It happens all over again

[Chorus]
The end won't begin when you climb aboard
We have always been his passengers
The end won't begin when you climb aboard
We have always been his passengers

I didn't know that I was dying, you said
He said "just give it time," and laughs
"Out here everything just tends to fall into place
And it all starts to make sense."
Red sky at night, let's go for another ride
Red sky at night, let's go for another ride
Letting go of our grotesque reflection
Dying to be carried away
Dying to be carried away
Dying to be carried away
Let's go for another ride
Letting go of our grotesque reflection
Letting go of our grotesque reflection
