lyrics

Can you hear the sound
Big cities of fume and motion
A horizon of lights you’d tried to reach

These iron walls
Make for the open ocean
A feeling without you’re incomplete

Living is a thousand small deaths
And death is drowned in sound
The clouds are clearing over our heads
And the ghosts have left the town

Take the train across states
Thundering towards new cities
It doesn't matter where it ends

The map unfurls
Its folds are temporary
As Lines connect from east to west

Living is a thousand small deaths
And death is drowned in sound
The clouds are clearing over our heads
And the ghosts have left the town
