Lyrics and translation
Original
In an ushered town
And the palace scarring hidden low
Where the peaks stay saint
And the streets wind up and down below
To the balcony
Where the hands embrace amidst the row
The flickering screen
And smell of omens in the grove
Won’t leave
Don't leave
To come so close to all this
Won’t leave
Won’t heal
Scream says stay every time
The image it played in my mind
And we say grace
Every time we're in this place Is it mine in the mirror?
Is it mine or the mirror
That we made where we haven't run
Deep into the road
Where the olive has grown
Lost till we are known until lost is all we know
And the pollen silt
Till we're tracing in the snow
And down into the stream
Says stay every time
The image it spurred in my mind
And we say grace
Every time we're face to face
Is it mine in the mirror?
Is it mine or the mirror
That we made
Take all the time it takes
Make all the time it takes
Take all the time it takes
To make all the time it takes
To take all the time it takes
Make all the time it takes
Take all the time it takes
Make all the time it takes
Take all the time it takesTo make all the time it takes
To take all the time it takes
All the time it takes
Take all the time it takes
Make all the time it takes
Take all the time it takes All the time it takes
To take all the time
