"Lost Songs" lyrics - ...AND YOU WILL KNOW US BY THE TRAIL OF DEAD

Lost songs, they're going nowhere
Lost for words with nothing to share
Lost beats with no emotion
Swimming through remotest ocean
Vague shapes and blunted knives
Give their best to crupled up lives
In this port there's nowhere to go
Only void to swallow you whole

Sometimes we might wander through these aisles
Picking up the tracers with our minds
Tell me this is where I crossed the line
Winding through the isle of lost songs

Lost loves, they rot around you
Their molten despair fills the blank air
Lost chords they can't be broken
Drenched on holes, words unspoken
Vague shapes and lying signs
Take the beauty from these lost lives
In this world there's nowhere to go
Only void to swallow you whole

Sometimes as we wander throught these rites
Picking up transmissions with our wires
Tell me there is something to inspire
Living there inside these lost songs
