Echoes Songtext
von Guy Blackman
Echoes Songtext
On the streets you look again
At the places you have been
For the moments that you thought
"Where am I going?"
Though the walls are like the dead
They reflect the things you said
And the echoes in your head
Continue showing
Here the castles you can build
Out of dreams you have fulfilled
Won′t keep out all of the ill wind
That is blowing
And you look still for a trace
Of an opening in a place
Where you find the life
That you were used to knowing
You can walk out in the night
Be sure that it's alright
To exaggerate the world
That′s only being
You can watch Regina dance
Through the crystal panes of glass
Yet you know that there's so much
That she's not seeing
Still you hold one precious thought
After all this time you′ve sought
She might be just protecting
What she longs for
And her eyes are veiled with black
Cause she claims she can′t look back
At the love she wanted so
But says is no more
Lights go on, commence the cold
As your senses will be sold
To the parrot watchers mimicking
No reasons
To pretend that what they are
From the fact completely far
While the truth may be betrayal
Lies and treason
Build the towers in the sand
Down the rows of their command
Where their kingdom is the innocence
They're stealing
An infection easily spreads
Through the searching twisted heads
As they team up to tear down
Each other′s feelings
At the places you have been
For the moments that you thought
"Where am I going?"
Though the walls are like the dead
They reflect the things you said
And the echoes in your head
Continue showing
Here the castles you can build
Out of dreams you have fulfilled
Won′t keep out all of the ill wind
That is blowing
And you look still for a trace
Of an opening in a place
Where you find the life
That you were used to knowing
You can walk out in the night
Be sure that it's alright
To exaggerate the world
That′s only being
You can watch Regina dance
Through the crystal panes of glass
Yet you know that there's so much
That she's not seeing
Still you hold one precious thought
After all this time you′ve sought
She might be just protecting
What she longs for
And her eyes are veiled with black
Cause she claims she can′t look back
At the love she wanted so
But says is no more
Lights go on, commence the cold
As your senses will be sold
To the parrot watchers mimicking
No reasons
To pretend that what they are
From the fact completely far
While the truth may be betrayal
Lies and treason
Build the towers in the sand
Down the rows of their command
Where their kingdom is the innocence
They're stealing
An infection easily spreads
Through the searching twisted heads
As they team up to tear down
Each other′s feelings
