The Best Are Leaving..

[Verse 1] The best are leaving They're leaving Boarding the heavenly metro Somewhere up there they wander Warming their hands by starry fires We will all die someday Our bones will crumble in the ground But I still keep this secret Hidden in my trembling mouth [Chorus] We don't live here Here we fly to visit Our home is beyond this blue That sleeps above our heads We Leaving Fly home Gleaming with white wings Thumping in my ears like a metronome Tell me What will become of us? [Verse 2] Candles in windows flicker Names on the lips of tired priests Every farewell feels final Every hello feels half-complete I watch the rails keep shining Straight through the clouds and rust I know only one thing Love We’ll be just voices made of dust [Chorus] We don't live here Here we fly to visit Our home is beyond this blue That sleeps above our heads We Leaving Fly home Gleaming with white wings Thumping in my ears like a metronome Tell me What will become of us? [Bridge] Maybe we’re sparks in the dark Maybe we’re echoes of light Maybe we’re hands that let go To finally hold what feels right (oh) If every breath is a ticket Folded and worn with use Then when this heartbeat quiets I’ll ride that train to you [Chorus] We don't live here Here we fly to visit Our home is beyond this blue That sleeps above our heads We Leaving Fly home Gleaming with white wings Thumping in my ears like a metronome Tell me What will become of us? I know only one thing We will be just voice and love
