Lyrics
What do you see in me? Aged in different lives we'd meet. But you believe in me. Colliding different hopes with false leads.
But what does it mean and why do we speak? Of a different presence that could not be.
Watch as the ground then parts. Creating these paths for us to walk. Low cut limbs wind push through your hair leading me on the floor.
But how can we reconcile the taunting feats? Holding us down we know we cant do nothin. Anything.
You still can't see what you need. These are the words you speak. You can still find something. Something more I can not be.
but what does it mean and why do we speak? Of a different presence that could not be. And how can we ever reconcile these feelings that bring these taunting feats. Holding us down we know we can't do nothin. Anything.
Cant be anything
Id give you anything
Cant be anything
