Lyrics


you were my best bet
and everyone knew it
you took me out of this world
and threw me back into it

an empty love threat
this endless frayed thread
this tug of war, who loves who more, i'm letting go of the rope

the afterglow,
you can't shine out a shadow
my friend nostalgia, we're closing out the show
the afterglow, no light without a shadow
my friend nostalgia, it's been a lovely show

reconnaissance mission
i see regina in all my dreams
i'll change regimes and clean up.

deep bass of a long boat chugging into night, to night
seeking the coast, freeing the ghost

the afterglow,
i'm in a love with a shadow. ...
