Lyrics
Oh, wake me please when this is over
Oh, when the ice has melted away
And the hunger returns, I will be the same but older
And maybe twice the bear that I thought I was
Where have you been and what have you done?
I've been under the ground
Eating prayers from this old book I found
Under the ground, saving it up and spending it all
On moving pictures, silent films
Moving pictures, silent films
Or is this the dream I've been saving?
Oh, where the heart beats slower and slower
To almost nothing
Almost nothing
Almost nothing
I took it for love or at least something beautiful
Out there in the spotlight
Turned around suddenly, turned around squinting
And saw that it was headlights
And then the truth, the truth was unbearable
Oh, and imminent
Bearing down on these two shadow animals
Caught painting a dotted line
Caught painting a dotted line
Caught painting a dotted line
Where have you been and what have you done?
I've been under the ground
Eating prayers from this old book I found
Under the ground, saving it up and spending it all
On moving pictures, silent films
Moving pictures, silent films
