Lyrics: Nightward. White Venice.

A restless drive
on desert roads
Avoiding the perils of stormy seas
I came to you
A Saturday
That freezing December that numbed the hearts

White Venice
Youa??ll waste away in there
White Venice
Youa??ll waste away in there

And you were there
Shape divine
Black hair on black eyes that sparkled dark
With a dreamy air
I followed you
To places of silence that burned the hearts

White Venice
Youa??ll waste away in there
White Venice
Youa??ll waste away in there

Ita??s just like the winter on my skin, cold deep inside
So, Ia??m just going to wait it out, until you say
a fine word to throw it all away, breaking me free
From this icy thorny spiral

The blur -
It became so clear in my soul
Slow is the climb over walls
Walls made of tears and adieus
The loss -
It became so clear in my soul
I crack a smile at this joke
Because this life, because this life makes no sense


Godspeed

And when the light fades, lead me astray
Or ghosts will come to me
I need to sail away
on seas of disarray

Was I so wrong
when I said
that goodbyes sound better when one is deaf
And all I asked
To the queen
Was to remember, remember me

White Venice
Youa??ll waste away in there
White Venice
Youa??ll waste away in there

Ita??s just like the winter on my skin, cold deep inside
So, Ia??m just going to wait it out, until you say
a fine word to throw it all away, breaking me free
From this icy thorny spiral

The blur -
It became so clear in my soul
Slow is the climb over walls
Walls made of tears and adieus
The loss -
It became so clear in my soul
I crack a smile at this joke
Because this life, because this life makes no sense
