The Hush Sound - Lighthouse lyrics

Take what you need while there's time The city will be earth in a short while If I'm not mistaken it's been in flames You and I will escape to the seaside There is a storm in the distance The wind breathing warning of its imminence There is a lighthouse five hundred yards down You and I will be safe there There is a girl who haunts that lighthouse She saved me, I was swimming So young I almost drowned Under the water she sang a story Of losing her lover She calls a warning Love, you are foolish, you're tired Your sleeplessness makes you a liar The city is burning The ocean is turning Our only chance is the lighthouse Her lover was a sailor She went and she waited there The door locked from the outside Lover never arrived so she sings there Soft as a siren luring the ships off their course, how alarming We went in, we climbed up and looked out The door locked from the outside Three ghosts in a lighthouse
