"Saint Anthony" lyrics - SENSES FAIL

My memory hangs like the stained glass of the saints
Past history I buried deep, Saint Anthony
I hear that he can help me find the things I need

Alaska winters pray for end of summer days
But the sun won't go away
Just like me, I'll bet they really want to change

I can run as far as London
But my past has first class seats

[Chorus:]
The lighthouse lost its beam
Now all I see
Is the face of the cliffs between the moonlight waxing
I fear for my life
That the current tonight
Is stronger than the will that I have to survive

So breathe, you're alive
So breathe, you're alive
So breathe, you're alive

Is it just me
Or do you wonder if we're put here just to see
How much heartache we can take
Without hanging from the tallest tree?

I feel as lonely as a preacher's wife
My heart's a Russian night
I drink to try to melt the ice

The Cold War in my mind
The truth hides between the lines

[Chorus]

So breathe you're alive
Breathe you're alive

Because we'll make it through this
No matter the odds
All bets are on
It's always darkest just before the dawn

[Chorus 2x]

So breathe you're alive
So breathe you're alive
So breathe you're alive
