White Venice Lyrics - Singles - Nightward

A restless drive 

on desert roads 

Avoiding the perils of stormy seas 

I came to you 

A Saturday 

That freezing December that numbed the hearts 

White Venice 

You'll waste away in there 

White Venice 

You'll waste away in there 

And you were there 

Shape divine 

Black hair on black eyes that sparkled dark 

With a dreamy air 

I followed you 

To places of silence that burned the hearts 

White Venice 

You'll waste away in there 

White Venice 

You'll waste away in there 

It's just like the winter on my skin, cold deep inside 

So, I'm just going to wait it out, until you say 

a fine word to throw it all away, breaking me free 

From this icy thorny spiral 

The blur - 

It became so clear in my soul 

Slow is the climb over walls 

Walls made of tears and adieus 

The loss - 

It became so clear in my soul 

I crack a smile at this joke 

Because this life, because this life makes no sense 

Godspeed 

And when the light fades, lead me astray 

Or ghosts will come to me 

I need to sail away 

on seas of disarray 

Was I so wrong 

when I said 

that goodbyes sound better when one is deaf 

And all I asked 

To the queen 

Was to remember, remember me 

White Venice 

You'll waste away in there 

White Venice 

You'll waste away in there 

It's just like the winter on my skin, cold deep inside 

So, I'm just going to wait it out, until you say 

a fine word to throw it all away, breaking me free 

From this icy thorny spiral 

The blur - 

It became so clear in my soul 

Slow is the climb over walls 

Walls made of tears and adieus 

The loss - 

It became so clear in my soul 

I crack a smile at this joke 

Because this life, because this life makes no sense
