Where were you? Forgotten
Forever but the blindness at the bottom
A face passing unseen
A place nobody's been
Just forgotton
Where was I? Remembered
A photograph, a face the same as ever
A patchwork of young years
A voice you think you hear
You remember
And now forgiveness
Looks a bitter little business
A passing grace
Excusing an escape
Now we are thieves
Take what you can and leave
An instinct overturning all the world I once believed
You sleep through slaughter
We don't owe you the whispers lost in the running water
No corner of our house
No view to the days rolling in and out
While you sleep, we slaughter
Wake up now, we've finished
Lost in a fire or whatever, there wasn't a witness
Nothing holds us here
Everything's as it appears
We've finished
