Vermillion

There's a man with a face like sorrow 
  Now he's gone for good 
  How could anyone hold you without feeling good? 

  There's a shop where the thoughts that I borrow 
  Swim around my head like snow 
  How could anyone ignore you? 

  So play on, play on, play on 
  The skies are made vermillion 
  We're singing in a concrete star 
  Oh we're all just castles in the cards 

  There's a hope in my blood when I see you 
  I hear crashing drums 
  How could any other language hope to lead me on? 

  Little sparks in the puddles shoot like darts 
  at all the things we might be 
  you and me 
  and time itself is frozen 

  So play on, play on, play on 
  The skies are made vermillion 
  We're killing all the saints tonight 

  Oh play on, you shadows of the light 

  So play on, play on, play on 
  The skies are made vermillion 

  If all I was was all I felt 
  Then the sun itself would start to melt 
  Into waterfalls pouring down like song 
  Oh play on 

  So play on, play on, play on 
  The skies are made vermillion 
  Killing all the saints tonight 
  Oh we're all just dancers in the night
