The Sound Of The Engines

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh, I dream of starships, starships and the void The faces of the prophets history destroyed But I will live forever; of this I am sure Bury my lovers, I am the cure [Pre-Chorus 1] My body is wider and stronger than collapsing buildings And I will see the graves, I will see the graves of your children [Chorus 1] Woke up in an ambulance, beaten and bleeding The sound of the engines, oh, I am a wound un-healing [Verse 2] When I was a user, my arms were all in splinters But out here in the snowy field, I am the winter My coat, it flies open, and I let you in The Great White Noise will be your undoing [Pre-Chorus 2] A left to the heavens and a right, a right to the jaw A chorus of the angels, and I fall [Chorus 2] Woke up in an ambulance, blue-fingered and freezing The sound of the engines, oh, I am a wound un-healing
