So many holes in my head The world rushes in Scanning for signals before all the noise Gets under my skin It's only a weakness to be looking for traces A connection to everyone
Give me an iron lung to brace me for strangers and keep me away from faraway places show me the signs 'cause I'm looking for traces and show me the human behind other faces
In the illusion of distance mistaken for coldness I can't explain in the garden of silence I'm hoping to listen to your whispering You give me hope for the future show me traces of life In this old crumbling shell
I'm looking for traces Something to hold in my hand I'm looking for traces Somebody somewhere forgotten I'm looking for traces Something to fill in the gap I'm looking for traces Something that no-one can take away
