Tethered

We took the last train
Out of the city
To plan our great escape
And there's a low cloud
Where we've been living
And now we're off to search for better days
Better days

When you're walking through the cold
You shouldn't have to walk alone you know
It's dark but not so dark when we're together

We rode the last train
To where the world ends
Stared into the nothing then turned back
We heard the grass grow
(Did you hear the grass grow?)
We felt the sea change
(Did you feel the sea change?)
All to keep our hearts under attack
Under attack

If you're walking through the cold
You shouldn't have to walk alone you know
It's dark but not so dark when we're together
If you need someone to hold
If you want someone to wake up on
I'm hanging by the line that keeps you tethered

And if it's black, black outside
My voice is sounding distant, I'm
I'm hanging, hanging by the line
I'm hanging by the line

If you're walking through the cold
You shouldn't have to walk alone you know
It's dark but not so dark when we're together
If you need someone to hold
If you want someone to wake up on
I'm hanging by the line that keeps you tethered

Are you holding on tonight?
Are you broken, do you need more time?
I'm hanging by the line that keeps you tethered
