I have 45 second to show you,
How your heart was torn by
Disilusions, trapped by all the whims
That you created, shaking with a
Fear...
Give way to the sun, it will remind
You there are better days,
When you'll be smiling. stop this
Apathy before it swallows us!
Am i just the same?
We need empathy
(do you believe me)
We need empathy
(time to retrieve it)
We need empathy
(i really want it)
Give me anything
However small!



(whew!)

A wrinkled photo on the wall
Tells things that came before it went away
Even all the ghosts inside
Hazy as can be, leave traces of who we used to be
And they say...

How does it feel? to know that you're real. how does it feel?
How does it feel? to know that you're real. how does it feel?

How does it feel? to know that you're real. how does it feel?
How does it feel? to know that you're real. how does it feel?

We could write a symphony
And go across the ocean and still
Never feel the earth inside us
Every little girl or boy becomes a hollow shell
But don't cry
Remember all the fun and let's sing...

How does it feel? to know that you're real. how does it feel?
How does it feel? to know that you're real. how does it feel?

How does it feel? to know that you're real. how does it feel?
How does it feel? to know that you're real. how does it feel?

There's a sound i recall as i watched the trains
I remember how i felt so small standing next to you
As i walked in the land where i couldn't speak
No-one seemed to understand, it was only me

All we are is a speck in a tiny place
That's part of a larger whole, in isolation

Desperate when you fall down, i won't let you drown
Although we're small
Kiss me, say goodnight. our love is bright.
Although we're small
Tell me, you're not afraid, that feeling fades
Although we're small
Show me, you are my friend, to the farthest ends
Cause time is small

All i need is under the spell of words,
Always there, trying to remind me of
What and who i am...



All i need is high on the sea of stars,
Shining down, trying to remind me of
What and who i am...



A tear to catch when it all comes crashing
Down, a loving face that tears away
The frown, somebody who needs to
Need, is all i needed...



All i need plays on my soft machines,
Like a child, trying to remind me of what
And who i am...



Even though i've seen the heavens fall
With the taint of every heart we tore,
In spite of the odds, my friend,
It was all i needed...



All i needed...all i needed...

(claude s.)


You can hide your precious tears, but it
Won't get rid of all regret. all the colors
Of reform won't lend a hand when you
Decide to fall. so clear away the scars
That were left behind by things you hate.
Will you ever love again? after all the
Dirt is gone?



Wash away the dirt, let your feelings
Hurt, drive away the shame.
Be yourself again.



All this grime is just a sham, the icing
On a cake made of sand now becoming
Dust. where you came from you will
Surely go...



Wash away the dirt, let your feelings
Hurt, drive away the shame. be yourself
Again. wash away the dirt...wash away
The dirt...



Dirt words will always bind you,
Attempt to connect to the guilt that finds
You. in a time of doubt, not greed or
Hunger, do you understand the vice
You're under...? getting older, withered
And tempered, may be too late to stop
Your trembling. slide to the left side of
Your brain, listen to the kind of waves
It's sending. dirt is like a virus deep
Within you, can you see the way
It tries to twist you? lurking
Inside your head i found it,
Wrenching away at the hope you
Needed...



Find the strength, break the
Urge, return...yourself...to you...



Wash away the dirt, let your feelings
Hurt, drive away the shame. be yourself
Again. wash away the dirt...wash away
The dirt...

I heard you ask about the end
Of the world, so i felt it come
To pass. mega-tivity multiples
With the first thought to the
Last...i say, 'please don't
Worry'...you say i am naive
I say 'we should hurry'...
'anything that you believe
Is the way it's going to be'



We're falling, yeah we're
Falling, falling in the negaverse,
Falling, yeah we're falling
In the negaverse...



Dressed in grey as a means to an
End, can't you see the fallacy.
Dwelling on decay brings it near,
All we need is to ascend...
You say, i am imperfect...you seem
So oppressed. i hear all your words
Yet, i am not the one who said
Everything will burn again,



We're falling, yeah we're
Falling, falling in the negaverse,
Falling, yeah we're falling
In the negaverse...



There are dark times far ahead, as
Your mind collides again,
Are you going to hide away,
Till the end...of the world...?



We're falling, yeah we're
Falling, falling in the negaverse,
Falling, yeah we're falling
In the negaverse...



There are dark clouds overhead,
Waning moon obscures the sun,
Breaks the silence as you run, it's
The end...of the world...now...

I stumbled on a hillside, begging
For the answer to a dream where
I'd turned myself to stone...
And in the dream there was a girl,
She shook my hand, i said 'hello'...
It folded as i crumbled...



I don't know why all the rains must
Always fall into me. there are colors
In the sky we cannot see,
I do believe...
And she said,



Heaven is the only way to fade...



And so i told myself i'd have to find
My way across alone. there are no
Reasons why...just then the birds
That flew all took me in their wings
And then i knew;
Everything is surely something...



My father died never knowing what
It was, and it was plain...
It doesn't matter what you do or
What you say, just sense the pain...
And she said,



Heaven is the only way to fade...



So when i shut my eyes i cannot
Wait for the replies from her. i'm
Sure she'll understand...that after
All the time is gone i'll know i've
Lived my life in full, as great as i
Could be...

And in the dream the girl
Reached out into the dream the girl
Reached out into the night, we flew
Away...i asked her if she had any
Old regrets that made her stay...
And she said,



Heaven is the only way to fade...
(for my father, who died never knowing
What it was and it was plain)

My senese have awakened once
Again. collectively they seek out to
Defend all the things that i have
Been before, to filter all the past
Wounds through my door.



What can i do? what can i say?
Perhaps you think i've gone and
Lost my way? i used to think, not
Long ago, 'all dreams must end'
How could i be so wrong...?



I was draped in closure; you gave me a
Whisper. took me in from shadows to
Absolve the tragic. i was out of focus;
You have opened my eyes.
I was just illusion; you have sculpted
New ways...



Inside i saw the real...with your
Senses...to lose my senses was a sin.
Where i had none, you had six...
