lyrics
LAURA
I wake in a place that I don’t recognise
The figures are blurred I can’t see their eyes
The water waits
But who is this man, I see only a shell
Is it him I need beg to get on the vessel of hours
Laura, laura, laura I call your name
Will I, will I, will I see you again
The walls stretch their fingers
Come, come closer to the water
Where is the line between us and the world?
Where is the line between body and mind?
Laura, Laura, Laura I call your name
Will I, will I
Be that as it may I’m leaving today
To keep living my life away
To keep living my life
Away
My dreams are fooling me again
How can I mean what I don’t intend
I look for the words and find only a mirror of my desperateness
Laura, your shadow speaks but I can’t understand
Your words make silence too strong to end
I swallow my fears as I walk to the bend
The water takes me
Slipping under the landing
Searching for some safety
With blood in the eyes and blood in the mouth
You come to me now but I can’t be your half,
Anymore
I wake in a place that I don’t recognise
The figures are blurred I can’t see their eyes
The water waits
But who is this man, I see only a shell
Is it him I need beg to get on the vessel of hours
Laura, laura, laura I call your name
Will I, will I, will I see you again
The walls stretch their fingers
Come, come closer to the water
Where is the line between us and the world?
Where is the line between body and mind?
Laura, Laura, Laura I call your name
Will I, will I
Be that as it may I’m leaving today
To keep living my life away
To keep living my life
Away
My dreams are fooling me again
How can I mean what I don’t intend
I look for the words and find only a mirror of my desperateness
Laura, your shadow speaks but I can’t understand
Your words make silence too strong to end
I swallow my fears as I walk to the bend
The water takes me
Slipping under the landing
Searching for some safety
With blood in the eyes and blood in the mouth
You come to me now but I can’t be your half,
Anymore
