Lyrics for Albion Perfide

Coming home away from you This much is true The empty days have gone. Coming back from the other side The knowing lies Kiss the days goodbye. And nothing ever changes No nothing after all We are burning Because. Just because. Falling down from starlit skies Exist survive And kiss it all goodbye. And nothing ever changes No nothing after all We are burning Becauses. Just because. Looking for hope Looking for a way out It's not enough. Looking for hope Looking for love, No it's not enough. Looking for a little truth Finding there's a lot of pain. What we knew they'll never know. Looking for hope Looking for us – Maybe we never did. Looking for us Looking for the be all and end all It's gotta be enough. Looking for a little truth Finding there's a lot of pain. What we knew they'll never know. No it's not enough So take your chances Superman in circumstances. It's been a long time Such a long time. It's not enough Can't comprehend the Angles anymore So take your chances now. Been a long time Such a long time, Because Just because.
