No one knows a thing about you
And - you have never tried
To open up your heart to them
Without – opening up your eyes
You are not a one to dream
You are - always on the ground
Your feet firmly placed, with a straight face
As you - just ignore the clouds

But can it be
You have felt a change
Can it be
You’re no longer on the fast track now
Can it be
You began to see the way
Can it be
I must say I’m amazed

Cause you always fight, live or die
You get yourself in corners
And I’ve never seen something so completely
Out of order
Cause you rarely fail, rain or hail
To play the game of lovers
And at all cost… (ah-ah-ah)
All is lost
Again rain is falling
‘cause Autumn is calling
We’ll have to let go of the sun
But I’ll always remember
I’m one who can never
Forget things before they are gone

So, I keep a piece of you with me
Low in responsible reality
So, I memorize my memories
Fleeing to a world of shared ideals

And so they stare at the face of the sleeping
And gaze upon the mortal fate
And see only what is worth keeping
To be served, with last honours,
On a silver plate...
A silent man's utopia;
A place where no one speaks
Where voices, if ever so rarely heard,
present themselves in soulful whispers
that echo through the souless streets

Surely, as man is not to die alone, neither is a heart to die unloved.

You are barely here
Have a mind overruled by fear
Count the walls as they seem to rise
As they speak you rationalize
You are hardly home
Have a heart that has been dethroned
Pass the time conditioned by hope
Make them see it’s not you that they broke

Your departure
Like a stone on my heart
Weighing down the weightless
Numbing all but the worthless
In a way entirely cold
Entirely unknown
Or might it be too hard to speak of such defeat?

Blame them I could never
For hollow we drown so easily
In streams of rain, of tears and pain
We could not have fathomed before
For could life be so cruel?
And love such a merciless mistress?
