If you intend to live again
Then open your eyes and don't pretend
You're feeling there's nothing worth believing
God, if you persist you'll die like this
And wither in the midst of your first season
Cut down with no reason
How can you be so near and not see everything?
If you intend to live again
Then take the outstreched hand of the one that needs you
It's been so long, we've missed you
Why do you intend to speed your end?
Lie in the dark and let your limbs grow weaker
Sinking low then deeper
How can you be so near and not see everything?
Feel what might be
See what I see
Again and again and again and again say you don't
You say you don't but you will
How can you be so near and not see?
