Hiding out from the history
Of nights so faded on an empty street
In the dreams we had while we were still young
You’ll find me when you’re older and you’ve lost someone
Say the words as I let you down
Lonely verse, the silent sound
You’ll hear the curse of the one aloud
This is how you leave someone

Faded words from the ghosts who speak
Whispers buried all across the sea
Faded winter on a lost landscape
The day they’ll find us in a frozen lake
Says the words as I let you down
Lonely verse, the silent sound
Hear the curse of the one aloud
This is how you lose someone
Oh this is how you lose someone

I’ll be gone tonight but not too long
You will see the fire as it burns so strong
In the autumn fields where the sun hangs low
It sets the land on fire in the coming snow
Says the words as I let you down
Lonely verse, the silent sound
Feel the earth from beneath the ground
This is how you lose someone
Oh, this is how you lose someone
I finally found out how to leave someone
