I want to jump at my own shadow
But why can’t I move?
So close your face to mine
Who are you? I can’t see your face clearly
Grey fog surrounds us
And embraces the trees in this alley
It was a strange place I woke up in today
I came to my senses and saw these eyes staring at me
All I want is just to go away
Away from this face so catatonic and eerie
I can’t move but only blink
I’m so tired of losing faith
In people I see on the streets.
People who try to find but lose their ways
After being knocked off their feet
Should we rewrite all the stories we’ve told?
The stellar disguise is a hell of a treat
Nothing you touch will on the spot turn to gold
But the chance is still there while you still feel your heartbeat
I can’t move but only blink
So I close my eyes, two walls in this space
Two walls to isolate me from this stare
To stop seeing this face
But when I open my eyes again
Another hazy face I see
But the eyes are the same even then
Those same eyes are staring at me
Every single feeling, every single sight
Became a shadow strolling through my head
I’m trying so hard to again feel all right
And not to think of those who left
And not to think of those who left
You’re tied but didn’t see it before
Far from having a chance to escape
Left to stare into these eyes you can’t let go
The fact you are so afraid to face
Do we still believe in the stories we’ve told?
Is the stellar disguise a hell of a treat?
Nothing you touch will on the spot turn to gol
But the chance is still there while you still feel your heartbeat
The same eyes will be staring at you all your life
If you don’t dare to face it, to move and go on
The same eyes you will see while trying to shelter in the crowd
Go and find your peace now. Don’t consider yourself gone yet
I woke up and went out into the street.
Maybe I am still sleeping or maybe I never was.
