Roman à Clef - The Prisoner текст песни

Исполнитель: Roman à Clef

альбом: Abandonware


Were you misty eyed
For the past?
We can never touch
The distance far too vast
That we never lived
Faraway, so close!
The lines get blurred, the colors run
Nothing is still, everything flows
But before we let it go
Give up that ancient prose
Seductive and so comfortable
Oh! Misled!
Present never felt
Future still un-dealt
Past not dead, not even past
Walk past the building
That I went to school
Do you remember the dread?
Well, I remember some gloom
Do you remember the girl?
Was there a girl?
Did you always feel like a fool?
Living with no expectations
Back before you had something to lose
Every time we touch the air
History is there
Dragging us back
Back down to the ground
Live as you want to be
Try to make new history
But tethered to our ghosts
Can't make it as we please
With the present overcast
Can we ever leave the past
Went to the park
That you had once known
Tire swings dance on rope
Naked branches groan
Looked so much warmer then
In those old polaroids
You were smiling
Holding some girl
You can't remember
A frozen shard of joy
Perhaps you'd like to let it go
But there's nothing else we know
Traces all lead back,
All back to ourselves
Moments that shine
Others lost to time
Can't touch the center now
The centers lies outside
The tattoo from years ago
The one you cover up with clothes
Can't remember what it meant
But you know just what it means
A teenage milquetoast
Making their mark
Before they depart
