I walk the pavement you walk every day
And I wonder how you manage
To make it

Time is going slow tonight
But during your days
Time is running fast

When the sun will rise
You will walk among the sheep
Shutting down the voices screaming

When the sun will set
You will leave this place
Opening your mouth to desperately breathe

How do you manage
To remain silent
Within this deafening environment

In what seems to be my parallel universe
World upside down
I am walking on the sky to avoid your footsteps

In your high tower
You are no closer to me
But buried under walls of glass

And it hurts me to see you
Fading in the void this life dug around you
Turning into a shadow of who you really are

I will go to sleep next to you tonight
Because this place has been my home before
But I will walk amongst you tomorrow

And I will look at your faces
And all I will see my love
Are ghosts
