Killed The Dawn

             -  Killed The Dawn  -

the southern wind just brings us pain.
we’re wishing we could have saved you.
find an ocean to sail away, and begin again.
we thought we could finally change.

that we could belong to you.
than we watch you slip away, in another's arms.

you we’re a tidal wave,

   from the very start.

a teacup storm,

   that swept right through our heart.

A reminder of things,

   we thought forever gone.

And now we see,

   it was the dark that killed the dawn.

If the moon could light the way.
that would bring you back to us.
the pain would wash away, and “we” could run.
the song remains insane.
as we sing our heart to you.
and we watch you slip away, in another's arms

you we’re a tidal wave,

   from the very start.

a teacup storm,

   that swept right through our heart.

A reminder of things,

   we thought forever gone.

And now we see,

   it was the dark that killed the dawn.
