lyrics

So sure you know him well
But you don’t know anyone
You just know a moment.
You know its soon
But you don’t know when,
You can’t save everyone
You just watch them falling.

And as far as eyes can see
Its all reflected - nothing real,
For so long.
And as much as minds believe
There’s a truth I can deceive
No more.

You know the rules: don’t show, don’t tell.
If you don’t need anyone
Then you don’t get lonely.
Don’t want to play Remember When
I forget anyway,
I forget only.

And as empty as this seems
There’s a balance in between
All things.
And the patterns in our dreams
Are the simplest of all themes
We know….

We are pollen on the breeze,
We are mist upon the seas,
Trying to fit in

We’re the lost forgotten souls,
We’re the shadows on black holes
Trying to fit in

We are raindrops in a storm,
We’re the gaps within a swarm,
Trying to fit in

We’re an unfamiliar face,
We’re the echoes deep in space,
Trying to fit in

We’re the cracks within the clay,
We’re the rats within the hay,
Trying to fit in
