Come on, let’s go back
And get what was forgotten
It’s all gone now
It’s old and rotten
Trying to make a comeback
From my memory
But my mind is one-track
And it’s playing constantly
And it’s trying to be free
It’s the quiet ones you have to watch
Like a hawk and it’s prey
What a catch
Scavengers come out to play
I get too bored with the things I’ve begun
I’ll go to hell if heaven’s no fun
I am nothing and it’s more
Than I can ever become
It’s the world that is wrong
There’s something I’ve got to do, got to be someone
And it’s nothing more than what I can become
So there’s nothing I can’t become
If this is where I belong
Tell me if you’ve heard it before
For the same has come and gone
Now it’s time
It’s time to move on
Who knew the lungs I breathe from
Are the ones I give air to?
Day in, day out
This day has lasted ages
Now it’s time to put it to bed
But really it has no end
Circles round into the night,
Just the same, more sleep, less light
I stay awake ’cause it feels like
No-one else is
The world is mine
I could kill it in its sleep
Or watch over it all night
In peace
In my arms it will come to no harm
And I know
If it was any more or less
It wouldn’t be this
And it’s never really the end
If something else begins
And it’s pointless preaching
If there’s nothing to believe
And it’s hard to go
When you don’t want to leave
And it’s impossible to know
The right way to live
And it’s hard to stay
When you want to go away
And it’s impossible to
Forget if you cannot forgive
Let’s go back to the beginning
And get what was forgotten
There’s something I’ve got to do
Got to be someone
And it’s nothing more
Than what I can become
