Lyrics for The Ceremony of Innocence

There was a dark And all this There was a darkness I liked Dancing on the sails on dawn Dancing on the sails and they're gone I brought this I brought it for you I brought the sight, I brought the light I brought the time you wanted I brought it like a savior and I Knew what I couldn't do Drowning like a savior And I knew what I couldn't do So much I could never do You said it was easy To see you with your eyes closed That there was nothing to me Seeing through me There was nothing to me No one knew me The lightless floor, the closing doors Falling up, just see me once more I know I'm scared
