lyrics

What do you see
When you look at me
Do you wonder what I’m thinking?
A sideways glance
Cellophane trance
Do you know that I’m sinking
Behind the veil
Between heaven and hell
A place I know well?
In the shadows
Slow way of dying
Do you know how the truth lies?
A sideways glance
Cellophane trance
Do you know that I’m sinking
Behind the veil
Between heaven and hell
A place I know well?
This lazy wind
Will blow away the things you said
A year or two
The tears you bled
This lazy wind
Will blow away the wrongs we’ve done
The settled scores
Add up to none
No one to remember
No one to remember
This lazy wind
Will blow away the things we’ve done
A year or two
They will be gone
This lazy wind
Will blow away embarrassment
Mistakes we made
They will be gone
No one to remember
No one to remember
