Lyrics The Pin Drop - Steven Wilson

Carried away by
The river that passes through bulrushes on to the sea
Dragged by the current
To rest on the stakes of the breakwater shaded by trees
Beginnings and endings
Love intersecting a rift that will break us apart

Love learned (love learned), in turn (in turn)
Dreams burned (dreams burned)
Love learned, in turn
Dreams burned

I am tired of struggling and the rain is beating down on me
I tried to be the way that he wanted me to be
I did not hear the pin drop down
I did not hear my heart

I have not lived and loved enough, things are left unsaid, undone
It was not meant to be like this, drifting off without a kiss
We built our love, we built our ark, nothing ends before it starts (things I built to measure my life)
I cannot feel my arms and legs, I don't deserve this bitter end (mesmerized by my own gifts, I)

Love learned (love learned), in turn (in turn)
Dreams burned (dreams burned)
Love learned, in turn
Dreams burned

I am tired of struggling and the rain is beating down on me
I tried to be the way that he wanted me to be
I did not hear the pin drop down
I did not hear my heart
