Lyrics:
They dance all night
And sleep all day
They live for nothing
But this escape
Too bad they can't say at the break of the dawn that the night was a dream
Yet nobody can say at the rise of the sun that it was what it seemed
I know I've swallowed it all
But I could never be full
And now they call me a fool for leaving
Home with you
Alone with you
They drink all night
And ache all day
Too bad they can't say at the break of the dawn that the night was a dream
Yet nobody can say at the rise of the sun that it was what it seemed
I know they've swallowed it all and they could never be full
And now they call me a fool for leaving?
And I could never be sure...
Now I'm leaving
Now I'm leaving
So when all those who are convinced there's nothing but this
Come to us and condescend we know we won't miss emptiness
Behind the Song:
'Decadence. It is inviting as it is alluring. And as ultimately empty as it is temporarily thrilling. This is a goodbye song to the party, the dance, written from the perspective of one who has tasted at all (much like Solomon), and found no meaning in any of it beyond the fact that truth is not found in decadence, but in relationship with above...' - Andrew Schwab (Project 86)
