lyrics
how did I come to meet you here?
a stumbling revision of thoughts I had so clear
this subtle aftertaste is bitter and it stays
just long enough to see you disappear
are we all used up like some superficial dream?
are we so messed up that we can't even see
that we've picked our wounds so long that they don't heal
and the silence pulls us through another year
so why does it have to be this way?
a satirical surrealist in a never ending maze
they've searched through the debris without finding anything
no signs of life no signs of you or me
and I hold these words so high above my heart
if we scream too loud all meaning could be lost
and I'll keep these thoughts completely out of reach
until the silence has become a part of me
