Once I tried, lost twice
thus two times too many
witnessed just one lie
with that all fell down,
apart, away, like you and I
front row, eyes wide knowing
A memory still lives
and there I still see you
I hear you, those wicked promises
Don't like the way they echo
endless, in life, without
How must it be to feel nothing
numb throughout, No joy, No sorrow
only tired of my voice, of crying
so you chose, and here the result
The broken version of what else
Daylight in the night, dreams, decisions
real, yet, cast no seen shadows
only burn the outlines into eyes
found open, left blind and shut tight
once I tried, and once... once...
Out of thoughts, out of words to discribe
daylight in the night, outlines
saying goodbye and knowing the result

Once I tried, lost twice
thus two times too many
witnessed just one lie
with that all fell down,

A memory still lives
and there I still see you

Don't like the way they echo
endless, in life, without
How must it be to feel nothing
numb throughout, No joy, No sorrow
only tired of my voice, of crying
so you chose, and here the result
The broken version of what else
Daylight in the night, dreams, decisions
real, yet, cast no seen shadows
only burn the outlines into eyes
found open, left blind and shut tight
once I tried, and once... once...
Out of thoughts, out of words to discribe
daylight in the night, outlines
saying goodbye and knowing the result
