Who Will Be The Only One

Seven stars hang over me
I tasted salt long before I saw the sea
My arrowed tongue has spoke of thee
"what held you once now will come to set you free"
Then come the night
Take off my skin
I must have died long before I did begin
Though I have heard that voice before
"what kept you close now will hold you there no more"

And when the dark does come
Who'll be the only one to arrive
Who will be the only one?
After the sinking sun
Who'll be the only one to remain
Who will be the only one?

Silver spun
Oh dust of bone
I was a ghost long before my heart was known
Oh and even then I heard it so
"what carried you now has come to let you go"
By morning light I'll be anew
But you saw me long before I did see you
Seven stars
They circle me
What's left to hold now with nothing holding thee?

And when the dark does come
Who'll be the only one to arrive
Who will be the only one?
After the sinking sun
Who'll be the only one to remain
Who will be the only one?
