Cruel grey skies - Run for cover In her eyes see her lover Fear the falling rain as you shelter Your world drowned, lost forevermore
Reaping a harvest of ruin Nothing remains Leave it behind as your ships sail away
He has reaped where he did not sow And keeps what he did not own In her arms he lies, where you used to be Her chains broken - merciful release
Nothing remains Searching for yesterdays dream Reaping in vain
Long ago you were standing there No-one knows, no-one can prepare He beholds your world, now your eyes are blind You let it slip away, now you're left behind
Let your ships sail away Leave behind all your tears All your hate All this desolation Drift upon open seas Distant shores rise for thee For you, for your salvation.
