Lyrics

Should I change who I am, should I tell a different story? Change my name, change my age will that draw you back to me? There's a ghost in my empty house memories, the memories A myth of ourselves that we told ourselves forever Forever, never I told you the story of myself that i thought you wanted to hear, wanted to hear That way you never had the chance to reject me for who i really am Reject me as I am (Who would I be) Who would I be if you loved me when you really knew me? After all these years Can I face myself? (who I am, who I am) Don't reject me for who I am, don't reject me for who I am (Who I am, who I am, who I am, who I am) So tired of knowing every answer Another day just like the one before (one before,one before) Nothing left to chance, no circumstance for the unknown, a fear of uncertainty Fists up, frightened, fighting in vain Now that my house has burned to the ground I can more easily see the moon The most beautiful moments remain mysterious Spontaneous, dangerous, forever unclear to us Show me your life, show me how you've loved Tell me your secrets, tell me how you've lived Now that my house has burned to the ground I can more easily see the moon Drifting somewhere lost at sea Baking under a radiant sun What we once argued about seems so trivial Politics, religion, love, our problems all inconsequential Drifting half a billion miles from the sun (billion miles from the sun) It's cold and empty, everything I should have done (I should have done) The vastness of life, so little of it touched Time, always time, rushing by Death waits, we're not immortal Death waits, we're not immortal If only If only I could live a little more If only you would whisper into my ear Life will pass us in an instant And what have I done with mine?
