lyrics

The light has faded thin and all the airplanes in the skies
Could not help themselves to fall back to the ground.
And all day, when we were waiting for the train to arrive,
No, we are not patient, and we are not understanding.
I read in the paper that across some foreign sea,
There lives a man whose feet will never touch the ground,
Because some time ago, he buried his fragile heart,
And since then he has been free, he has been free.

I will never hear what really happened on the night
You kept your harrowing fear out of sight.
You held it out of sight from me.

The water holds no cover as our figures break through it
And when we lower, then we can remove our masks.
For the sake of easy breathing and, avoiding the unknown,
We try to concentrate on keeping a steady tone.
I saw on some commercial that our bodies will dissolve,
Long before they’re finished being worn.
And a breeze will carry every sulking fit and every smile
Off with it, never to be seen again.

I will never see a reason for your mind
To finally release its hold on your actions.
I will never feel content after I lost
My grasp of what is real, and what is not.
Oh, what is not, this is not.
