On one still morn
I found your letter hid under the dust
And opened up
And i read for the first time in my young life
Details of what i had done with the first
And recognized all those things that everyone always had seen
What they always had seen
Oh when they told me
All the things that they'd seen
A man looks out
With the sun on his back and a shadow before him.
Twice as large
Why do things born out of the dark live so long?
I am myself
It means too much to be my fault
It can't be helped
My head returns to nest in the sand
You know my neck will bend
You know my neck will bend
You know my neck will bend
Like in a desert when you dream for drops of rain
The guest you're waiting for never arrived, and all that remains
Is your reluctance to admit you're not prepared
While you sit there you commit yourself to always be scared
You'll always be scared
You'll always be scared
You'll always be scared
Your letter stung
I drifted miles to an island alone
A brother comes
Don't let me down, don't leave me where noone else can see
Where no one else can see
Where no one else can see
Where no one else can see
Where no one else can see
Where no one else can see
Where no one else can see
Where no one else can see
