"Novum Vetus" lyrics

The day we died inside the world was suffering
Ten thousand words collide but no one said a thing
If I was late, at least I tried
The day we died inside the walls come tumbling down

Far removed from the wounds, you can see
Every open door
Is a world turned on its side
All these things we've said before linger on

Higher place to go
And then remind us
Who we're supposed to be
When empty words divide
And nowhere solid ground

Ten thousand voices cried but no one heard the sound
The fires burn, the mills die
The day we realize that time is running down

Far removed from the wounds, they still bleed
Every open door
Is a world turned on its side
All these dreams we shared before
Hollow echoes today

The ways I refuse to be

Far removed, iris blooms from the sea
Every open door
A new world come alive
All those things that came before
Little by little the memory fades away

To our opinion
Days will rise
And all your minions
You leave behind
Won't you say, girl
You ought to run
With me for a while

In every empty room
There is space to grow
Where I do say too much
Could it be this time
That every ending show
That I don't care anymore
I'm gonna leave it behind

I'm gonna leave it behind
