I write this to free Sisyphus
Put Death in chains
Prometheus
As Salieri wept for all of us
Now I absolve you
The fire he brought from the mount
To show us what it's all about
Without it, mankind may have flickered out
Now I absolve you
The blaze that roars inside my heart
Leaps up to tear the world apart
But you could stop it
Before even clouds start rolling in
And if you can then you can say
"My friends, I saved the world today"
Cause every time I see your face
You stop me where I stand
Another day, another trial
Let's face, we've been in denial
But I can never help but smile
Whenever you walk in
But holding on's what I do best
And if this is some kind of test
I'm only hoping that things don't get worse before the end
'Cause that train's pulled in and our song's played out
But there's time for one last kiss
Out in the rain, it was the least that I could do
When I found you standing there
And if you find the day is just a little longer
Play this song and you'll find
That all we ever meant was what we were before
One more day
I'm not much of a lyricist
I've often tried with words and missed
But if you can remember this
You stole my heart, I loved you
And like the fire from the mount
What you gave me has not gone out
And as I take Prometheus' place
Now I absolve you
I loved you
Couldn't you see
That we had something
I couldn't even cry
For happiness
Or tears of sadness
All I could afford is just a sigh
Cause that train's pulled in and our song's played out
But there's time for one last kiss
Out in the rain, it was the least that I could do
When I found you standing there
And if you found the day is just a little longer
Play this song and you'll find
All we ever meant was what we were before
'Cause that train's pulled in and our song's played out
But there's time for one last kiss
Out in the rain, it was the least that I could do
When I found you standing there
And if you find the day is just a little longer
Play this song and you'll find
All we ever meant was what we were before
One more day
