Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
The TV set is upside down
It doesn't serve to entertain
But keeps me company
Distracts me from the pain
The rugs, the floor, you'd be amazed
This place a shiny mausoleum
Clean-up's become so simple
Inside my sterile vinculum
The living room is all but empty
The dried and bleached bones of our life
Clean of meat and memories
I pour the umpteenth glass of wine
Alive but dead inside
I thrive in cheerless fantasies
Killing myself oh so slowly
Memory keeps me on my knees
Like a burst, a misery gusher
The feel of loss wells up again
Crying uncontrollably
I'm honing on my elegy
Get out, just breathe
The winding road
The midtown sleaze
The crowd at ease
They can't see what's revealed to me
Amidst the air
Emerges this distorted figure
A cubist nightmare, torso shattered
Prismatic eyes dispatching pleas
I'm reaching out just thoughtlessly
A touch that leaves me numb
Whiting out the scenery
I find myself, not unexpectedly
Alive but dead inside
This oh so well known apathy
But something's different, what's just happened?
If only that mute mouth could speak
Spacy, my footsteps leading me
To my homeplace filled with grief
But something's different, what's that light?
There's only one way I can see
My mind is in shambles
What kind of twisted trip is this?
As there you stand and smile and breathe
Yet no incarnate reminisce
That's when I re-enter
Another version of myself
We both appraise each other
You atween, a grotesque nonpareil
Debates erupting
Unpleasant spitballed beliefs
I just enjoy to hear your voice
With no idea what happens next
They appeared from out of nowhere
Sometime, someplace, I cannot tell
Travelers just like the previous
Explain to me I must not stay
Setting things right for the worse
I leave this scene where she's alive
Exiled back to my own homestead
There's no escape, I must contrive
Staring for a long, long time
I make a choice, dismiss my grief
Knowing that you're somewhere out there
It's that one thought that grants relief
Nighttime in my backyard
A view up high, so bittersweet
I tell the moon I'm missing you
That silvery disc's where our gazes meet
