lyrics

Do we unite our souls?
You're asking
With our bodies wrapped in a spiral
Just an excuse to get satisfaction

And so we live under a mask
You told me
Without any doubt it sounds true
To you and to others but not
To who's gone awake
Awake

Indecent! What you were talking about
We build our mask every day
We cover to seem someone else
There's nothing we can invent to break this
As mindless zombies drowned in sleep
With peaceful thoughts created by the system
There's nothing for us here
We need to live and awake

Let me know why we
Don't feel anything
More intense than a TV screen
You know people care about
Us and show their affection
But we never fall in love

Let me know what lies
Underneath the tremendous mask that makes
You sleep nothing
Is what you contemplate
Wake up and you can wander
At the dreams you hide inside

What can I wait for
When the sea is troubled
Still miss you who remind me of the sand
What can I wait for
The scent is so warm
Waves still flowing
Sand here on your skin

Intention, fear of being seen
Sensation, I think I'll stay for a while

After this chapter, we'll see each other
Will you be waiting for me still?
