It can't be true when all those years just fade away
And now it's just another town without a name
Echoes filter out through all the cracks beneath the walls
All the memories I have are not the same

Should I ever have come back
When no-one seems to recognise
Another face that doesn't lead their mind astray
Couldn't be forgiven for the sins that I once made
And now my heart is lying many miles away

(chorus)
But it's so peaceful and still
So hoplessly fading into winter
The mist in my eyes could never have disguised
What is real or what to feel
You're wired in the dark and broken from the start
By what you know
Waiting in this town for the world to spin around
When you find what's left behind

I don't believe I'll ever feel another part of here
The memories have changed inside my mind
Another life to lead, but all those months don't fade away
On the boundary of your office in the sky

Where there's faces I can't reach
And eyes that I can't teach
The emptiness of space locked in their hearts
Staring at their screens at night
From a 16-hour day
Working for the poison in your heart

CHORUS
