Sunny Day Real Estate - Novum Vetus Lyrics

The day we died inside, the world was suffering
Ten thousand worlds collide, but no one said a thing
If I was late, at least I tried
The day we died inside, the walls come tumbling down
Far removed from the wounds, you can see
Every open door
Is a world turned on it's side
All these things we've said before
Linger on
Ha

Higher place to go
And then remind us
Who we're supposed to be
When empty words divide
And nowhere solid ground
Ten thousand voices cried, but no one heard the sound
The fires burn, the mills die
The day we realize that time is running down
Far removed from the wounds, they still breathe
Every open door
Is a world turned on its side
All these dreams we shared before
Hollow echoes today

The ways I refuse to be

Far removed, iris blooms from the sea
Every open door
A new world come alive
All those things that came before
Little by little the memory fades away

Turn up anew
Days will rise, and we'll be young
Leave behind, won't you say girl?
You ought to run with me for a while

In every empty room
There is space to grow
Where I do say too much
Could it be this time
That every ending show
That I don't care anymore?
I'm gonna leave it behind

Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh
I'm gonna leave it behind
Oh
Oh
Oh
