Something is still deep inside us
Struggling so hard to get out
We thought no fault were our own
Could we be more wrong?
Empty faces look at me
But I am afraid to see them in the eye
tell me what we are
Tell me who we were
what will we become
They meet between
The left and right part of the brain
but tell me, what will prevail?
And in the end
They will fall back into them
But who are we to condemn?
I don’t know if I even care anymore

I was traveling thru the city
Nothing felt real
On a search for something
A wish to feel
I was traveling thru the city
Fast across the movie screen
Driving by old memories
They were waving back at me
Communist youth league
And they were dancing
Like nothing was wrong
And I kept pretending
All along

Well something is wrong
There is no plane in the air
We can’t make contact
We can’t find it anywhere
Well something is wrong
our boys are missing
Well something is wrong
There is no response
We have your plane
buried in the snow
Your husband’s won’t come back
your sons won’t get home
We found your plane piece by piece
We found your pilot limb by limb
We keep searching for the pilots head
Wait we found something
I guess it is his leg
We have your plane
buried in the snow
Your husband’s won’t come back
your sons won’t get home

Between battalions of shadows
The lightning comes around
This sea of forgiveness
Where should we go beneath the hollow skies?
The wall stands strong between us
Like a dream, swift and intense.
And while this is sung in the distance
We pretend to be like everyone else
The seed of man must be ashamed
Of what we have done
You look up in the sky
And your heart starts to leave the ground
Yet still we travel above the dark and drooping world
Where thousand and thousand nightmares
Still quietly burns
We have been traveling
For all too long
Now we are going back
From beyond
