Transit Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I have listened repeatedly
I have listened very well
No one interrupts the harmful
When they're speaking
[Chorus]
To wonder why of Europe
Say your goodbyes to Europe
Swallow the lie of Europe
Our shared history dies with Europe
[Post-Chorus]
Follow me
Won't you follow me?
[Verse 2]
A future's hinting at itself
Do you fear what I fear?
All those names of ancestry
Too gentle for the stones they bear
[Bridge]
Somewhere someone wants to see you
Someone's traveling towards us all
[Chorus 2]
To wonder why of Europe
To live, love, and cry in Europe
Say your goodbyes to Europe
Our history dies with Europe
[Post-Chorus]
Follow me
Won't you follow me?
[Outro]
The lights are dimming
The lounge is dark
The best cigarette is saved for last
We drink alone
We drink alone
