 Great song, lot of passion! :)
Purple  pavement
Crookfingers  knocking on windows  without souls
Bodies  are swinging  from rooftops  and poles
Howling  through hollows
Restless  nights and  one night cheap hotels
Oh,  I'm only drifting  to always  come back
And  I search for something
Oh,  whatever I  don't really care
Driving  with their  lights off they  can be anywhere
Rolling  down their windows
Open  card with open  mouths
Golden teeth  and  golden cars
You  call me your eyes, you  call me your mouth, you call me your ears
 Still you  follow my trail
I'll  do it all, I'll do  whatever you say,  God  has left me anyway
 Love I laid in payment
 Stars with stains and heaven and afterglow
 Beneath the ashes of echoes buried alive
 They are howling through hollows
 Once we share their temple of our arms
 Now our heads are hung up on walls
 We are ruins within ruins
 On every corner a gladiator is begging for another century
 When no one cut your tongue to know nothing and to know it all
 To be both the animal and god
 You call me your eyes, you call me your mouth, you call me your ears
 Still you follow our trail
 We'll do it all, we'll do whatever you say, God has left us anyway
 You call me your eyes, you call me your mouth, you call me your ears
 Still you follow our trail
 We'll do it all, we'll do whatever you say, God has left us anyway
 There are echoes  in the garden  is anybody  listening
 There are echoes  lost in  the garden is anybody  listening
 They whisper:
 The ones who  are only living  is the ones  who are  only dying

Love I laid in payment
Stars with stains and heaven and afterglow
Beneath the ashes of echoes buried alive
They are howling through hollows
Once we share their temple of our arms
Now our heads are hung up on walls

We are ruins within ruins
On every corner a gladiator is begging for another century

Still you follow our trail
We'll do it all, we'll do whatever you say, God has left us anyway
You call me your eyes, you call me your mouth, you call me your ears

There are [E]echoes lost in[F#m7] the garden is [C#m7]anybody lis[B]tening

They whisper:
The ones w[E]ho are only li[F#m7]ving is the [C#m7]ones who ar[B]e only dying
