Opaline Lyrics
[Verse 1]
See my scars
They come from the other half
The drowning god
My words are bouncing off the ground
I see them all around
But your back was turned
My heart had to learn
These years
What a theft
Forty-six now
How many left?
[Pre-Chorus]
Recall the red sun burning
Over the avenues and into our view
Radiance that signified
Magnified
Divergent hue
[Chorus]
I see the last day turning
Straight into emptiness
How did it get so late?
Your little voice in shadow now
Sowing seeds to segregate
[Verse 2]
Opaline
Saw the trail of thе fleeting twin
Through last year's grass
With the curtain closing in a bit
I will go wherе I see fit
Love me not
For I was never one to pass the test, no
All for the best
You're heading east
If you go now
I go west
[Chorus]
I see the last day turning
Straight into emptiness
How did it get so late?
Your little voice in shadow now
Sowing seeds to segregate
[Bridge]
Gliding
Weightless
Through the vapour
Off the map and into loss
No more wisdom here to gather
No more boundaries to cross
[Chorus]
I see the last day turning
Straight into emptiness
How did it get so late?
Your little voice in shadow now
Sowing seeds to segregate
I had a futile dream
It rose from loving you
But the debt has broken my back
There's no need to retaliate
As your train has left our track

I had the electronic intro thing lying around on a hard drive before I started writing for this album. I write stuff all the time and put it away and sometimes forget about it. But some stuff really sticks with me, and this was one of them. It’s a little bit influenced by a Swedish pop-rock band cal...
