"Silver Wheels And Wings" lyrics

"Silver Wheels And Wings"

Last night, the thief broke in
But the joke was on him
He left the moon in this empty room

And I have met the friend
At journey's end
And she is me, so is the enemy

Moved by invisible strings
Clutching at phantoms and dreams
But look at what darkness brings
Silver wheels and wings
Silver wheels and wings

I know when it all goes dim
It's just a big hymn
Nothing is holy
Holy, holy

We're coming apart at the seams
Nothing is as it should be
But look at what darkness brings
Silver wheels and wings
Silver wheels and wings

Moved by invisible strings
Clutching at phantoms and dreams
But look at what darkness brings
Silver wheels and wings
Silver wheels and wings
