Song language: English
The Body |
| Digging deep down in the vaults |
| Grabbing on to anything that holds |
| Any nerve thats still alive down there |
| Reach your hand into the hole, come up with broken bits of |
| The proof you’re looking for, that you were ever anywhere at all |
| Your '79s. |
| The innocence of simpler times |
| You can’t have them back |
| But could you build this room from scratch if you tried? |
| Close your eyes, cross over to the other side |
| Can you bring him back to life? |
| Recreate Initial State? |
| I remember everything, and I want the fixtures back |
| If I can shut out everything I know |
| I’d trade it all — to conjure one morning of life |
| When all was happy oblivion and nothing was your problem yet |
| You know you can’t have it all |
| But down in the hole, you can lose yourself in shadow worlds |
| What you resist persists, what you look at disappears |
| Then what is this you’re fighting? |
| There’s only smoke and mirrors here |
| You’re all alone in a long dead broken home |
| Staring down the boy lost in a midnight move so many lives ago |
| In a living room encased in formaldehyde |
| The body floats, stares right back into your eyes |
| And he says «Sir can’t you take me with you? |
| I’ve been here all these years |
| There’s nothing tactile in this room.» |
| He says «Sir please take me with you |
| I am your missing proof |
| We’ll take the other side |
| And bomb it all back to the womb.» |
| Close your eyes. |
| Crawl inside |
| All your spells can’t bring him back to life |
