Between the clouds of iron
You were landing on a deal
All the cards were laid down
But you didn't get the game

On your little tray
All the figures and the colors looked the same
How every day is sunny
And every sky is grey

The gorgeous lady
asks a simple question now
Are you an imposter
or can you play

You crack your knuckles
You fix a serious face
Why venture answers
When you can just be brave

(be brave, you can just be brave)

Her gold watch and her jewelry
Are bobbing in the wake
She looked so surprised when
The color left the page

Last words she said
Before turning away
They won't kill you yet,
For that you'll have to wait..

Yeh, you didn't break her heart with answers
Her heart just wouldn't break
For all the moves you rush to put together now,
All you can do is lie awake

The judge and jury were irrelevant
This was not the case

Bird voices, it's the first light
Between the clouds of iron
Is the sweat stained bed on which you lie awake,
Why break your heart with answers
When you can just be brave

So, through the clouds of iron
Such variation unicorns
Over folktale villages
Suck on teats of holy grail
Why scare yourself with answers
When you can just be brave

Your silence bears repeating
Your back looks better than your face
Take that as a compliment or take it as you may,
Why bother with the answers
When you can just be brave.

It's a night out somewhere
She' breathing gently
With her tools and broken heart
Over the final play

Why bother with the questions
Love can't be explained

She's touching gently
It's gently touching
As she's walking away
(and she's walking away)
