Roar - The Crawl Lyrics

Join me now and we'll burn
Like a torch across time
Over once-mighty kings
Let us creep like slow vines

Should the Earth end tonight
Though we both sulk and gloom
Upon my back I'll carry you
To the moon

Did we not live loud?
Did we not howl at the sky?
Did we not share life of volume and speed?
Did we not burn our bridges
And maraud the countryside?

So we part now
And I don't know why
Til we crawl to each other again

I love you so much
I can love you no more
I love you so much
I can love you no more

And so, here's to you
My witch of the trees
I've kept all the envelopes
The ink and the leaves

So severed we are
With still so much to say
You don't seem to mind
My friend Marck says it's okay

Did we not stand proud?
Did we not drink the port dry?
Did we not share the dreams and spirit of the times?
Did we not feel the pressures
The storm and stress of the mind?

So we part now
And I don't know why
Til we crawl to each other again

I love you so much
I can love you no more
I love you so much
I can love you no more

I died last night
Or so I felt
Over foxfire town
Saw the twilight melt

As the transit streams flowed
To the strain of the ninth
I wept away years
At the beauty outside...
(We survive! We survive!)
(We're alive! We're alive!)
Blame it all on the tides

So we part now
And I don't know why
Til we crawl to each other again

I love you so much
I can love you no more
I love you so much
I can love you no more

We two are all
And all is as one
But it's all in my head
It's all in my head
