Messengers - A Song from a Cage Lyrics

We sent our prayers
Into the cold night air
They went up like the smoke from our cigarettes
They were thick with hope
And we laughed from the heart
In our effort to forget

A sense of doubt would come to us
We were high on the hopes of our belief
And I would try to hide
My guilty eyes
As we took our sweet relief

I remember how you paced the floor
In desperation and close to tears
I would mouth our plans
But in that space
They'd ring hollow in our ears

We only broke a promise that was made in vain
With empty words from behind the face
For did we really believe
Or was it well we knew
That we would never leave this place
Never leave this place
Never leave this place
