Here's to a truth we knew
Non-verbal
No writ no script just light like a whip struck on soul leather
It was a feeling
That I shared with you
It could only be hinted at with metaphor
Crudely drawn clichéd form
But I knew what I knew

You could hear it in her voice
She was over the moon
You could see it when he moved
And danced to the tune of love so true

Now it's over and you're cold
Your story's stale from being told
Know the tale skip to the end
Maybe you're achin' but try it again

Then it goes
A million miles an hour
Think you'll let it take you home
Freeze your golden hour
When you let love break your heart
It pulls [you back] to pieces
As you're weeping through the miracle
After all that we've been through
Thought I heard them say
"I can't believe it isn't gold"
It isn't gold
From the bottom bottoms up
Sip from soiled lovers' cup
And we'll time the shine that climbs
We'll fall in line in this humble parade

[Leaving lights on] turn them off
We can play the parts of the ones we lost
We'll be wed in warm sweet hell
And we'll lie as we lay

You can see it on her face
That the song's out of tune
You can read it in his gait
As he walked away

Now it's over and we're cold
No more story left to unfold
We read the end again and again
It always goes that way

Then it goes
A million miles an hour
Don't you let love break your heart
Givin' all your power
To a flame that falls apart
Freeze your golden hour
Don't you even let it start
Don't let it start
Don't let it start
No no
Can't be told
A million miles an hour
Don't you let love break your heart
Givin' all your power
To the flame that falls apart
After 'bout an hour
Then you think can't get higher 'til
All at once you find yourself
A million miles from home and all alone
A million miles from home and all alone
A million miles from home and all alone
A million miles from home and all alone
