lyrics

Rounds and rounds, my head's still restrained,
and it can't find a place to remain.
Gleaming empty
trains, wet and shame,
riding nowhere, just windows making life on frame.

They all wear thick tongues, so why.
Hooked in pairs by playing their rite.
Drinking from a glass fountain,
how narrow life gets, chewed up to leave this sight behind.

All I can think is
how did I get here.
All I can say is
wish I could hide in the rain..
May I just lay on the waves of the wind?..
I might just get far away
if I get to see what it means to fit in here.

Through golden smoke his time steals.
It's crazy the perfume that leans.
Drunken shadows, they know my name to this day.
And 'Sleepy Skin' protects their fears.

A tender bloody sweet old folk.
His hearted colors overflows.
It took my life in cold style,
they say 'in dreams' and that's fine.
Gets never ever right on time.

All I can feel is
how did I get here?,
All I can tell them is
wish I could hide in the train..
may I just pray for the waves in the wind?..
I might just get far away
if I get to feel what it means to fit in
here.
