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

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
