I tried to find some silence in this shallow space.
|
I pushed pillows in my ears - I concealed my face.
|
No, don't you even try to catch my eye, it sits frozen in its place.
|
Here it's invitation only...I'm lonely, but I'm forced to say
|
that I cannot see you now.
|
Yet everywhere I walk I'm crushing something
|
because I cannot see the stairs.
|
I'd share my sores with you over coffee,
|
but the queue's 1000 years...
|
And someone stole my badge
|
and now I've lost the right to be here or breathe the air.
|
It's not fair, but that's just the way things are.
|
And I cannot see you now...
|
But through it all my princess holds my hand
|
and assures me there's an island
|
yet untouched by human hand.
|
We must simply keep believing
|
and simply keep our eyes fixed on the morning.
|
So I threw my pillows to the wind and I waited for my wings...
|
And you cannot see me now!
