Deaf Ears

You can count out in whispers
Keep measure of time and space for days
For all your working out of figures
I'll be cursed to lay awake

When your best days come and go
And those desperate fears take hold
You'll pray

But your prayers fall on deaf ears tonight, my love
You keep reaching farther and faster for something more

You said no more words permitted
Only shadow's play could ever persuade
Now the darkness falls all around you
Suffer to know your cold heart's to blame

When your best days come and go
And those desperate fears take hold
You'll pray

But your prayers fall on deaf ears tonight, my love
You keep reaching farther and faster for something more
