Light a candle, leave it out (oh no!)
Leave it out for the hungry ghosts
Every time we wander out, it shows
All the fear we hide in these bones
Somewhere they wonder why the rain's still falling down
We live between the wars in this northern town
The dancehall where we met has fallen down
It couldn't stand the loneliness
The loneliness
Many eyes out has the night, be sure
Not to be seen where we've been before
Down where the shadows all collide and fall
They're waiting on
They're waiting on us all
Somewhere they wonder why the rain's still falling down
We live between the wars in this northern town
The dancehall where we met has fallen down
It couldn't stand the loneliness
The loneliness
And when the night it falls
It calls us all to sleep
We'll handle the fright because it's all we've got to keep
Some days it seems this place is all we'll ever know
But i've seen those lights go on
There
Further down the road
Further down the road
La la la la la la
Loneliness
