Lyrics
Images light up my mind, ever revealing
any kind of weakness, any kind of feeling,
but I never let them see me.
Caught in the fight from my strife, running and reeling
city to city, Eden to Eden
Some peace of mind escapes me today.
Take me away.
Faces from the free side, I see them all.
I fix my gaze on your distant walls
even though I never caught your name.
A wish to exist with you beside me,
the stable base that you provide me.
And still I wonder, where are you now?
Love is the light that makes us
and binds us to these earthly places.
Just live a moment, before my time is gone.
My heart grows heavy with this weight you cast,
a clever plan ranking destiny last.
A simple love for me exists, how far from you?
Do you believe in an afterlife?
I’d settle for a life in this one.
Hiding in the shadows, peeking through the doors,
Listening for the whispers, wonder if its yours?
Waiting for a signal sent from up above,
this silly retribution can never catch my dove.
