|
I live on memories of a feeling |
|
But my memory is so deceiving |
|
repeating promises I still believe in |
|
writing words for those who were leaving so long ago |
|
So long ago |
|
Trying hard to remember what I felt like |
|
those words that almost made you melt down |
|
those eyes that burned a hole right trough you |
|
those days when no one really knew you |
|
And the pain |
|
so sovereign |
|
The scraps and fragments I can recall |
|
the punches and needles are not enough at all |
|
To make my mind glow |
|
To make my mind glow |
|
To make my mind glow |
|
the way only fire bestows |
|
The street lamps are my friends when I'm escaping |
|
from myself and the world that they are shaping |
|
My inner fire turned into a lightbulb |
|
I shy the sun to tell myself that it's still shining bright |
|
my inner light |
|
Chorus |
|
I try to live a life that I remember |
|
play a part that turned into a memory |
|
I search for clues of greatness in my past life |
|
looking forward has never been my strong side |
|
In the past |
|
is all that lasts |
|
The scraps and fragments I can recall |
|
the punches and needles are not enough at all |
|
To make my mind glow |
|
the way I used to |
|
The scraps and fragments I try to grasp |
|
the words and their meanings are running right through my hands |
|
To make my mind glow |
|
what do I need to do |
