Taciturn Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Across the sea to you
I've left myself deserted here again
Across the sea to you
My pieces are too broken now to mend

[Pre-Chorus]
In the middle, under a cold, black sky
The sun will only burn for you and I
In the moment, before I lose my mind
These hours don't mean anything this time

[Chorus]
Give me a sign
Show me the line
Maybe tonight
I'll tell you everything
Give me a sign
Show me the line
Maybe tonight
I'll tell you everything

[Verse 2]
Across the world for you
My reasons have no reason to remain
I'd cross the world for you
I don't know what I'm doing wrong
But I can't stay the same
[Pre-Chorus]
In the middle, under a clear blue sky
The sun can only burn for you and I
In the moment, before I lose my mind
These hours don't mean anything this time

[Chorus]
Give me a sign
Show me the line
Maybe tonight
I'll tell you everything
Give me a sign
Show me the line
Maybe tonight
I'll tell you everything, yeah

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Give me a sign
Show me the line
Maybe tonight
I'll tell you everything
Give me a sign
Show me the line
Maybe tonight
I'll tell you everything
Give me a sign
Show me the line
Maybe tonight
I'll tell you everything (Everything)
Everything
Oh

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

The Human tries to bring everything back together, begging for some sort of compromise from all angles.
