[Intro] The storm is settling, the smoke begins to clear We leave another city, we shed another tear The files are bound in leather, the ink is finally dry Another dark reflection under a heavy sky [Verse 1] We look into the mirror at the lines upon the face And wonder if we ever really can outrun the chase The storm is settling, the smoke begins to clear We leave another city, we shed another tear [Pre-Chorus] The files are bound in leather, the ink is finally dry Another dark reflection under a heavy sky We look into the mirror at the lines upon the face And wonder if we ever really can outrun the chase [Chorus] The case is over now The case is over now But we carry what we found A heavy heart of justice A mind that bears the strain We wash away the memories Inside the falling rain Until the next report... Until the next alarm... We try to keep the innocent Away from any harm (The case is over now) [Verse 2] We leave another city, we shed another tear The storm is settling, the smoke begins to clear Another dark reflection under a heavy sky The files are bound in leather, the ink is finally dry [Pre-Chorus] We look into the mirror at the lines upon the face And wonder if we ever really can outrun the chase The case is over now, the shadows have been bound But every step we take still shakes the ground [Chorus] The case is over now The case is over now But we carry what we found A heavy heart of justice A mind that bears the strain We wash away the memories Inside the falling rain Until the next report... Until the next alarm... We try to keep the innocent Away from any harm (The case is over now) [Bridge] There is a sacred horror about everything grand It is easy to admire a forest, but who can admire a desert? The mind can be a desert... If you let the monsters rule [Outro] The vocals fade out ( Sound Effect:The acoustic guitar and piano slow down to a gentle pulse The weeping string section holds a long, beautiful, somber chord) Fade Out ( Sound Effect:The rain continues to fall gently, fading away into a soft radio hiss The tape track clicks off) Absolute silence
