lyrics

Under the trees, where I buried my eyes there was gold
There it was: your gold mine
Strange though it may seem, I thought it was a dream until you spoke
What are you doing my friend, in my coal mine?
That’s not my fault, your old dream has been dreamt out
Oh you fooled me, you fooled me somehow
Your words fell on deaf ears. Your words fell on deaf ears
I carried on into your gold mine
And I will fool you, I will fool you somehow

Underneath the pale light I’ll carry my hands
Underneath the broken light I’ll bury your name
I’ll bring you roses, bring them roses when I’m done

I wondered if you knew the pain with which I wove the night
It was all for you
So over the time, secluded by my crime, you preyed on me
While you were burrowing in my gold mine
Oh you fooled me, you fooled me somehow
I went down to the mine, I went down to the mine
To find redemption and the hope to carry on
Oh I’ll fool you
I will fool you somehow

Underneath the pale light I’ll carry my hands
Underneath the broken light I’ll bury your name
I’ll bring you roses, bring them roses
I saw your arms around the trees, like words with lies around me
I saw your words tearing by the seams, and they broke their arms around me

They fell down, betrayed, by my side
