about
A song about losing someone who is still there
lyrics
You look like a friend
I haven't seen in a while
Is that my blood
On the tongue hid behind yer smile?
In our simple, friendly bliss
I never thought it would come to this
And all I can do is reminisce...
<chorus>
How can we prevent
What our minds can't comprehend?
And our bodies underwent
Like our souls were never present
You'd think this plague was heaven sent
Did it hurt as bad
As it looked like it did?
Could you still see after
The light went out from behind yer eyelids
Did the innocence of yer song
Give way to an empty moan?
Was it a curse growing inside you
Or just the symptom shown
Of a heart underneath the weight of the world?
<chorus>
As I'm slouching towards the end
And man's shadow starts to bend
This apocalyptic world seems so strange
I'm gonna dance like the dead
And embrace the change
<chorus>
