Church bells toll
Thunder roars around me
I've been warned
to prepare myself
for the fall
I'm armed to the teeth with tender pain
of all yesterdays
Tears on tape
I will follow
into your heart
Sketching rain from afar
Tears on tape
She surrenders
needle in arm
while we dance into the storm
Darkness falls
settling the score
with love for once and for all
Soaked in blood I cry
I fear we're lost to the summer rain
lonely and afraid
Tears on tape
I will follow
into your heart
Sketching rain from afar
Tears on tape
She surrenders
needle in arm
while we dance into the storm
and for a moment there's no pain
For once there's no more pain
in your eyes
and maybe we'll love
just enough
to convince us to keep breathing on
Tears on tape
Tears on tape
I will follow
into your heart
Tears on tape
Tears on tape
I will follow
into your arms
