please say you'll come along tonight 

please sing the words we love 

don't say that you forgot them 

don't keep the hand we've come to hold 

I know you want to untie this rope and let it go 



please pose my skeletal remains 

give them a working pen 

and I will live forever 

please let them love me though I fade 



I know you want to 

I know you want to 

I know you want to run away 



we're finding our own tonight 

we're single sparks the time has come 

they come on battalions 

we're finding our own tonight 

a little light to keep it on our own battalion 



please keep these sounds from running out 

please let our steps fall soft 

keep them from hearing our tongue 

please let some hope come with the day 



I know you want to 

I know you want to 

I know you want to run away 



we're finding our own tonight 

we're single sparks the time has come 

they come on battalions 

we're finding our own tonight 

a little light to keep it on  our own battalion 



I know you want to 

I know you want to 

I know you want to run away 



and so we watch the time we keep 

and you know that I am swift 

you know that I am quick 

you know that I am fast asleep 



we're finding our own tonight 

we're single sparks 

the time has come 

they come on battalions 

we're finding our own tonight 

a little light to keep it on 

our own battalion 



I know you want to 

I know you want to 

I know you want to run away
