These days slip by like a movie
A song on the radio I'll end up forgetting
The alluring magic of life, wasting away
I remember you in memories
Subliminal for the ages, every time you're crying
I feel your heart sighing
And you're forever young on an unruly path
Swaying with so much to say
I hear you but I don't know what you mean
In photographs, in dreams
Your clipped wings are waiting for destiny
The day you unwind, unwind from safety pins
There's trouble in paradise, I can feel it
Soaring through every fibre, every blocked pore
Every bulb and every bolt of wisdom, forgetting
Bloodshot eyes, dilated pupils
Succumbing but there's no sense in it
There's no sense in me, praying but it's inevitable
You're acting like someone I don't know
Saying things I don't mean, with your haughty smile
My body trembles and I remember why
The sky illuminated on a dark night is more silent
Than my treacherous mind, devouring time
I wade through fatal pretences, loveless edges
Quiet when I should be loud.
