Unhold - Delorean, Caroline Polachek

Are we falling?

We are falling

Are we falling?

Up to a height

The sun is going down

Light is weakening

We carry into the night

Ever burning

Why are we silent and out of sight?

What’s in you that cannot make you mine?

Too late for us to have started this right

Too soon to have given up the fight

Why are we silent and out of sight?

No horizon

There’s no horizon

The noose is tight

Where we once saw land

Are we here to sing

All we have to sing

Until it rings

True again

And it kills me

Why are we silent and out of sight?

What’s in you that cannot make you mine?

Too late for us to have started this right

Too soon to have given up the fight

Why are we silent now?

Like a cloud of ink with no end

Speaking to us in only rumors

Like a goalless speech with no weight

Grudges sung in tune

As the fire never fades

Traded by your rule

Yet I try to make these words be mine

For I fear losing what I see now

In those eyes

Why are we silent and out of sight?

What’s in you that cannot make you mine?

Too late for us to have started this right

Too soon to have given up the fight

Why are we silent and out of sight?
