lyrics

The past knows what you are
Though you believe you're free so far,
So pure of heart.
It knows you're following me
When will my eyes foresee?
You try to dance on a dream,
But it’s not all it seems.
And so I ask you,

Answer me, I know you’re listening
Dreaming of the words you’re wishing for.
Close your eyes, we’ll fall together
Holding on-to you forever
Answer me and I’ll re-side with you.

Silently you pro-claim,
They'll come for me, they know my name.
My soul re-gained
Why don't you stay here with me,
Wandering through the sea?
And I will forever lie
Bathed in eternal life
And so I ask you

Answer me, I know you’re listening
Dreaming of the words you’re wishing for.
Close your eyes, we’ll fall together
Holding onto you forever
Answer me and I’ll reside with you.

Once again you cause me pain
But I could never stray away from you
Every day you scream my name
And those who hunt my soul, they scream it out with you
I fear you'll turn me away

There are those who can see all that you do
See all that you construe
The self that you withdrew
Once up-on a more peculiar time
I was a distant dream lost in rhyme
Wherein lies my heart,
If not inside
Must you cry?
Wherein lies my voice
Who will confide?
I cannot run
Cannot be
Cannot fall
Cannot say
Cannot die
