Opening these eyes for the first time As if they had seen all along Follow these callings beyond the storm Dying to know why this seems so momentary For so long Ive been waiting To return to the world left behind me Dont believe a word that you hear Ive written all that can be revealed Is this a sign to surrender? Dont let all be lost not having read The words that through ink were bled Is this a sign to surrender? With a blindfold tied and just one round in the chamber The will escapes me To stop the record from skipping The streets have emptied And I have finally made up my mind Its no wonder that there was No exchange between our eyes And I dont know if this is Something from which I can hide Its no wonder that there was I didnt mean for it to be this way No exchange between our eyes And I dont know if this is A symphony without arms and Something from which I can hide I didnt mean for it to be this way A symphony without arms and A theater empty while youre Stranded in the balcony Follow these callings beyond the storm Dying to know why this seems so momentary The shore, dreading the shore I.XII.X.VIII.II.VII.IV.XIII.IX.III.V.XI.VI.XIV. And when I finally Pass through your gate Avoiding the faces Staring up at me Expecting our eyes To meet again I met instead Our names etched in stone
