In a lighting flash landscapeI saw your best plan laid out
And there was so much more
In the arms that you carriedwere the arms that held us dear
And we were so let down
Fill the canteenspull up the stakes
You're burning everything that you can't take
And I'm left with nothing more
Than the tracest evidence like some partial finger print
That you left on the door

Right here and now we'll pick up our hearts and leave town
Right here and now we carry on, carry on
You run your mouthand I'll run my business
Teach you to say hallelujah
It seems you need some convincing
Well we don't talkwe deal in lead

In a lightning flash landscape I saw my best plan played out
And there was nothing left
You wont change my mindjust save your breath
I told you secretsthat best stay kept
Now just let me forget
Chorus
