Lyrics

in a time of my own - sitting here, feel my bones 
feel my flesh, seem to live, breath existence, buried my anguish
in a time long ago, all we thought to see was beauty at all
we could feel each others breath, we could hear each others heart beat

but it's different now, life grew up somehow, 
we degraded time to a planning tool
we gave up control, let limitations rule,
we were fools enough to drift away from love

we see our life like a stranger
we see our life like a stranger
 
never see me, never hear me, never understand my life,  
you just walk by
you just walk by

in a place of my own, I locked me up for my soul
loved to listen to no sound, ignored the thoughts that someone found
in a place far away, all the love was there to stay,
I could always avoid to fight, all seemed to be surrounded by light

but it's different here, you're controlled by fear
all your confidence has went down the drain
you believe in hate, damn the twists of fate
you feel hunted and forced to attack

we see our life like a stranger
we see our life like a stranger
 
never see me, never hear me, never understand my life,  
you just walk by
you just walk by
