No More Songs
[Verse 1]
Hello, hello, hello
Is there anybody home?
I only called to say
I'm sorry
The drums are in the dawn
And all the voices gone
And it seems that there are
No more songs

[Verse 2]
Once I knew a girl
She was a flower in a flame
I loved her as the sea
Sings sadly
Now the ashes of the dream
Can be found in magazines
And it seems that there are
No more songs

[Verse 3]
Once I knew a sage
Who sang upon the stage
He told about the world
His lover
A ghost without a name
Stands ragged in the rain
And it seems that there are
No more songs
[Verse 4]
The rebels they were here
They came beside the door
They told me that the moon
Was bleeding
When all to my surprise
They took away my eyes
And it seems that there are
No more songs

[Verse 5]
A star is in the sky
It's time to say goodbye
A whale is on the beach
He's dying
A white flag in my hand
A white bone in the sand
And it seems that there are
No more songs
It seems that there are
No more songs
