Church bells toll, thunder roars around me
I've been warned to prepare myself for the fall
I'm armed to the teeth with tender pain of all yesterdays
Tears on tape I will follow into your heart
Sketching rain from afar
Tears on tape she surrenders, needle in arm
While we dance into the storm
Darkness falls settling the score with love for once and for all
Soaked in blood I cry my farewells to the summer rain lonely and afraid
Tears on tape I will follow into your heart
Sketching rain from afar
Tears on tape she surrenders, needle in arm
While we dance into the storm
And for a moment there's no pain
For once there's no more pain in your eyes but maybe a little love
Just enough to convince us to keep breathing on
Tears on tape
Tears on tape
I will follow into your heart
Tears on tape
Tears on tape
I will follow into your arms
