lyrics

Gravediggers keep turning up gold
Pretending to do as told
While the soundtrack to the whole charade
The white noise of the world won't fade

And all the things we cannot bear
Laughter, distress and dispair
Is carried forth by an ominous wind
Reminding us how we have sinned

And would you mind
Would you mind at all
If I told you that we'll fall
Down the ladder again?

And would they mind
Would they mind at all?
Will they stand and watch us fall
Down the ladder again?

Sparrows dancing cheek to cheek
With crows with roses in their beaks
Roses black with sorrow hold
A promise that was never told

Still together we may sleep
An untold promise we must keep
Brooks and rivers cross our way
As we sleepwalk far astray

And would you mind
Would you mind at all
If I told you that we'll fall
Into the current again?

And would they mind
Would they mind at all?
Will they stand and watch us fall
Into the current again?

Gravediggers will make a fortune
Working graveyard shifts tonight
We'll rebuild long lost bridges
If we find it in our might to

Tear out the heart of darkness
To decide what we will be
Dancing crows or dancing sparrows
Either way they've cut our wings so we can't flee

And do you mind
Do you mind at all
That we're heading towards fall
Without shelter again?

And would they mind
Would they mind at all?
Will they laugh as we fall
Deep into darkness again?
