Lyrics

[Verse 1] Reason never seems to come to guilty men Things that meant so much mean nothing in the end Their function is dysfunction and to hide the truth Distracted by their faith, ignoring every proof [Chorus] A bicycle A garden wall A mother's call A love is born And after all the sleep that falls on me [Verse 2] And in the city there are those that live alone Twilight brings them from the gloom into our homes And hiding there among the wreckage left behind They see things that haunt them when they close their eyes [Bridge] Come back if you want to And remember who you are 'Cause there's nothing here for you my dear And everything must pass When the world doesn't want you It will never tell you why You can shut the door, but you can't ignore The crawl of your decline (Child, come child, come) Come back if you want to (Child, come child, come) (Child, come child, come) Come back if you want to (Child, come child, come) Come back [Guitar solo: Guthrie Govan] [Chorus: Ninet Tayeb] A bicycle A garden wall A mother's call A love is born And after all the sleep that falls on me
