Light a candle, leave it out (oh no!)

Leave it out for the hungry ghosts

Every time we wander out, it shows

All the fear we hide in these bones

Somewhere they wonder why the rain's still falling down

We live between the wars in this northern town

The dancehall where we met has fallen down

It couldn't stand the loneliness

The loneliness

Many eyes out has the night, be sure

Not to be seen where we've been before

Down where the shadows all collide and fall

They're waiting on

They're waiting on us all

Somewhere they wonder why the rain's still falling down

We live between the wars in this northern town

The dancehall where we met has fallen down

It couldn't stand the loneliness

The loneliness

And when the night it falls

It calls us all to sleep

We'll handle the fright because it's all we've got to keep

Some days it seems this place is all we'll ever know

But i've seen those lights go on

There

Further down the road

Further down the road

La la la la la la

Loneliness
