Crocodile skin water
City shadows wait
Put your head into your hands
The ending is so great
Take a ride to sundown
Buy a ticket home
Take all the things I've bought you
Leave all the rest alone
Marble skins turn human
People fade to grey
Put your head into my hands
We'll make them go away
As you're crying softly
You will never be disturbed
Red on pink
The sun will say
Have you even heard
And the colours
Take me down
There's no reason to be sad
And you leave without a sound
There's no reason to be proud
Salty tears are wasted
Children lie in bed


They cry away
Put your head into your hands
Let your spirit breathe
Black smoke from the chimneys
White smoke from the hills
Everything is moving
But we're standing still
And the colours take me down
There's no reason to be sad
And you leave without a sound
There's no reason to be sad


You're alive
Celebration's fading
Thousands of others
Put your head into my hands
Try to be brave
The carnival has fanned us
The storm has left us peace
Pop your sleep undamaged
You're driving to the end
And the colors take me down
There's no reason to decide
I just need a lot of sun
There's no reason to give up
There's no reason to give up
There's no reason to give up
