Lyric

I've sunk lower than I've ever gone

Even the strange voices, changing

I don't know who they were anymore, but it doesn't matter

I'll never be your slave again

The more my footsteps fade and the deeper I sink into darkness

It's time to choose, to step out of the mirror

Between my past reflection and that of the future

That's how things are, what's left to say?

Just obvious things, things we've already sung a hundred times

Like absences, but we know we're already here

You start whispering your softest words to me again

I start not hearing them again, that's how it is!

I don't touch your things or your planes anymore

Lose yourself in my speed of sound

You know where I am, there's only one ladder

But like I told you, I'm rappelling down

(Good heavens!)

I'm beginning to understand what's happening here

Who my allies are, who my enemies are

In this grand masquerade where the banners dance

You're suddenly captivated by its charm

Just obvious truths, which we've already sung a hundred times

Like absences, but we know we're already here

You start whispering your words to me again

I start not hearing them again, that's how it is!

Just obvious truths, which we won't repeat

Say what you think and throw it to me

Inadvertently, it might slip into my arms

The image is an appearance, don't you see?

Just obvious truths, which we've already sung a hundred times

Like absences, but we know we're already here

You start whispering your softest words to me again

I start not hearing them again, that's how it is!

Just obvious truths, which we won't repeat

Say what you think and throw it to me

Inadvertently, it might slip into my arms

The image is an appearance, don't you see it?
