lyrics

It‘s close to morning
Been a peculiar night
Sun’s almost coming up
This isn‘t part of the routine
With weary eyes we still feel sharp
Although the edge is gone
Because of what you‘ve been saying
And it is not that it‘s wrong
And it is not that it‘s shameful
Nothing like this, but it is certain
That the pain you shared, that you let go
Or at least tried to
It has revealed in painful ways
How unbelievably blind we’ve been before
What selfish ways in our behavior?

But in this moment right on this illuminating morning
We finally understand that sometimes something‘s dearly needed
Is to take a step back and to let others share their pain
And even if you’ve been through worse, looked into the abyss before
In this particular moment you embrace, and you don’t push and don’t compare
In this particular moment
I just Stand there in dim morning light with people that I love
I take a drag, all has been said and we enjoy the silence

Gaze wanders up into the sky
See pitch black clouds are passing by so fast
Reveal this gloomy scenery

Why can’t you tell what’s going on?
We‘ve known each other for years
This night‘s supposed to be about us all
Why can‘t you tell what‘s going on?
We‘ve all been at this point
Stop burning bridges all the time

Far from the eye
Close by heart
How can you put into words
What lasts a lifetime or more?
Far from the eye
Close by heart
When raging waters calm
Just seconds after the tremor
Far from the eye
Close by heart
It’s been some time since we parted
Our paths continue to cross
Far from the eye
Close by heart
We stood together on the edge
And looked right into the abyss

Closer to dawn than dusk
Full ashtrays, scattered wine corks
Approaching words, one simply cannot take back

Why can‘t you tell what‘s going on?
We keep on pushing the boundaries
Till we‘ve pushed you too far
You burst in unspeakable words
It wasn‘t right to put this pressure
Please forgive we’ve let you down

Far from the eye
Close by heart
How can you put into words
What lasts a lifetime or more?
Far from the eye
Close by heart
When raging waters calm
Just seconds after the tremor
Far from the eye
Close by heart
It’s been some time since we parted
Our paths continue to cross
Far from the eye
Close by heart
We stood together on the edge
And looked right into the abyss
