Searching for the traces Of how you were before Sometimes you perceive familiar faces But I’m never really sure Tell me you still hear me I suppose you understand Why do appear to see right through me When I’m the only one you have?
Bridge
Still, silent wretch with joyless smile Why so bleak you seem this morning? I’ll still be with you for a while Will you not be woken for me?
Chorus
My child Would I ever let you fall? Is there something in your eyes? Or is there nothing there at all?
Verse 2
Every time I see you You don’t recall my name Sometimes I pretend you still remember But it doesn’t feel the same I hardly recognize you But you’ve been away so long Can’t you see I’m still right here beside you? And will you notice when I’m gone?
Bridge 2
Worst case for sure, they’ve even seen Only life without sensation No-one can find the help you need Seems your mind’s become too vacant
