These fires never die
|
They told me this would help
|
I'm walking by the water
|
|
I'm falling with the tide
|
They said that this would end
|
I went as far as I could
|
|
I'm on distant ground now
|
Fishing-boats go by
|
I fall asleep too early
|
|
I scream when no one hears me
|
The waves will wipe it out
|
And we'll be even
|
|
I turn my face to
|
From wherever the wind blows
|
Is it worth so much to try?
|
|
I'm at the airport waiting
|
For lights to fade below
|
And then: something else
|
|
All instant things are fading
|
The pain will go
|
I won't remember
|
|
And if the lights went out
|
If the elevator stopped
|
If we were lost where I was
|
|
Or in the deepest tunnel
|
The train just stopped
|
But you gave me no chance
|
|
I turn my face to
|
from wherever the wind blows
|
Is it worth so much to try?
