Bilingual
A one, two, three, four
ย
It was a long walk to the parked car
ย
Keep your head down, keep your hands warm
ย
I already can't see straight
ย
Miles and miles from where we began
ย
And I heard steel on steel
ย
Blinding light and grating wheels
ย
Everything moves so fast
Leaves no time to ask
Does nothing last?
Do all things pass?
Just ash to ash?
ย
It was a short story to tell
ย
Over and over to myself
ย
Each time it became more clear
ย
The only one to blame was standing here
ย
And I heard steel on steel
ย
Blinding light and grating wheels
Everything moves so fast
Leaves no time to ask
Does nothing last?
Do all things pass?
Just ash to ash?
What a curse
What a lie
Destined to survive
And relive every night
Like my hands were tied
