The Base |
| What I draw today |
| Will be recognized as shape… |
| I spoke to the base |
| And the base says «we wait» |
| So I smoke an old cigar |
| While the giant sun fades |
| See, I spoke to the base |
| And the base says «we wait» |
| And the base says we’re safe |
| Now and then I can see the truth above the lies |
| Now and then… oh I feel, you’re truly anesthetized |
| That’s why… |
| When I walk today |
| It’s in silence and in rain… |
| Can a man turn the page |
| While he’s trying to amaze? |
| So I hold my arms apart |
| But don’t deny you any pain |
| See, I spoke to the base |
| And the base says «we´re there» |
| And the base says «we win» |
| Now and then I can see the truth above the lies |
| Now and then… oh I feel those beauties, this life belies… |
| They’re like street lights |
| They tunnel on and on |
| Into these deep nights |
| Where the lights circle on… are so steep |
| So steep… |
| I count the falling stars |
| So steep… |
| Anonymous forces |
| So steep… |
| That broken street light |
| So steep… |
| Life is like a drug |
| Sky less night |
| So steep… |
| I count the falling stars |
| So steep… I will not be staying long |
| Now and then I can see the truth above the lies |
| Now and then I can see those beauties that shun my eye… |
| That’s why… |
