It's tragic--keeps on happening all the time
It's the kind of thing that i fear
I feel i'm making no headway
Walls i know are starting to disappear
It's like they'd never existed, strange but true
As sure as i'm talking to you
Now you see it, now i don't want to frighten you
But i'm simply here standing alone
Chorus i:
Trapped in these shadows that belong to missing persons
Names faded from memory join the list and then mark time
Once i would have been glad to have made your acquaintance
Now i feel a danger brought about by circumstance
Obsessed, the quality of life escapes me now
It's one of the things i lack
From the east and to the west
I feel it's time that i was heading back
I can't control these feelings that i have
I've never been one to hide
Become a pillar of society
But don't let your morals slide
Chorus ii:
Or you can find that you've become a missing person
A here today gone tomorrow breeze and lost in the night
Once i would have been glad to have made your acquaintance
Now i feel a danger brought about by circumstance
But i know in the end, i'll be safe, we'll be happy
After finding myself we'll be fine
Any problems we have will be gone in a moment
I'll become just a state of the mind
I want you close
I need you near
You have to be here
I turned around
You've gone again
Chorus i
Chorus ii
