about

This track was originally inspired by the film 9 Souls, and still has elements of that, but I didn't adhere to it too strictly.

lyrics

Sigh into the night
watch the blinking lights go by
Or masts on the ships that fall into the sea
Or the flood waters rise

Yet time’s like that I stop and just look at the stars
Or stand in silence to watch the rain or the snow fall down,
or the fog roll in as the street disappears into it

Look at the faces
of friends that you betrayed
and they said “You’ll pay for that with more than your life”
But do you face it or does…

The light, through the haze, dance in strangely peaceful ways
Rain will fall so grass will grow and the sun reflects off puddles in the footprints that were left behind

But I want to see faces of people who trust me
And warm colored tiles on the floor where I worked

Are these golden chances lost for ever
Are golden days just vague words to say?
Still the sun rises, and the wind blows, and I cut my dirty nails

Run forever and never get tired
I have dreams like that and sometimes I’m having fun
Sometimes I’m just escaping

Watch a movie of prisoners who escape
Just as they hesitate to reunite with the ones they love
The cops pull up

And

The sky was so blue and
The day was so normal
The street was so quiet
Heard the dust on the pavement

Those outstretched hands that are just inches apart
Feeling sorry for for the world that took them apart
And if that’s justice well, I don’t like it
Is that just how it is?

And down in the dirt
The green sprouts grow up
I wake up from my world end dream
From the castles being hit by meteors
And the dark citadels

So the movie’s over
The sun’s already set
A heart filled with compassion, when all is said and done
I hope it’s not too late
