Century After Century Lyrics

    Since your breathing, is it all that a space can fill?
    So just by looking in, I'll be looking still
    You find and follow stories well
    You're naked except for a newspaper, the headline telling me
    That fortune favours the brave
    I've been known to be that brave
    What I want is on it's way out
    All I needed was an easier way to stay

    Walking around the city as the light fades (is it all that you remain?)
    I'm thinking about each promise that I have ever made

    But I know what they will never say, I know what they will never say
    Century after Century they remain

    And if I read to remember that the entire Earth is outside this room
    So close the windows, keep the curtains shut forever
    And if I need to remember that the entire Earth is outside this room
    So close the windows, close the windows

    Isn't it romantic, to be romantic
    When you don't understand what you love
    Or if a word like that couls ever mean anything
    When what you want is on it's way out
    I didn't hear cheerleading for creative writers
    And your cheekbones don't taste of anything at all
    It's on it's way out, it's just an easier way to stay

    Talking about a city that the light made (is it all that you remain?)
    It's the same story that's been told
    But it's been stories that don't fade

    I know what they will never say, I know what they will never say
    Century after Century they remain

    Is it all that you remain?
