Days Are Numbered

[Verse 1]
The right words evade me
She turnt away scot-free
We're travelling unknown terrain
Halfway between two cities gleam

[Pre-Chorus]
I hang back and you move on
The procession sings onwards
The etching of your portrait
Sits bleached out in the back of my mind

[Chorus 1]
Glancing down, I see my face
Is there a wrong on my tongue that I cannot taste?
A rising tide comes to meet my words
A wind that pushes southwest knocks me off my feet

[Verse 2]
Horizons draw closer
The distance glistens, our legs quicken
A revelation see blind fixations
We carry fortunes of cities fading

[Pre-Chorus]
I hang back and you move on
The procession sings onwards
The etching of your portrait
Sits bleached out in the back of my mind

[Chorus 2]
We burnt the daylight upon the road
Flat on the ground, feet are placed upon the floor
Our days are numbered, one two three
I can't imagine what could save you and me
