Ex-lovers stalk the streets like shot arrows
We were burning down houses singing "love has left us low"
You swim the water now even though you know exactly what lies below
Calling "wolf" each time you say you'll go

Eternity, in your arms

Wrap your heart in chain mail
We all die just to feel alive
Your friends become echoes of a life that you left behind

Floating like an astronaut in space
They tell me that purgatory's such a pretty place
But I never thought about living here
Heaven knows hell's gates are near
Forever seems like such a thing to waste

Eternity, in your arms

Wrap your heart in chain mail
We all die just to feel alive
Your friends become echoes of a life that you left behind

I've been a man, now a ghost
Two of the things that you fear most
Now is the end of this journey, what's left for me?
I've been a man, now a ghost
Two of the things that I fear most
Now is the end of this journey, what's left for me?

Now I'm left asking myself
If there's a god up watching me I just can't see
Then how could he build a world but still not fix you and me?
If there's a god up watching us I just can't see
Then how could he build a world but still not fix you and me?
