R2 with Lazy Horse - Scarred And Mean: 08 About The World Around Us


The holes deep inside cause the trembling hands
So allow me to escape for a while to the distant land
I'm so tired of running away from the past
You can lay down beside me 'cause you understand
that if the can ain't open
you got to leave it be
And accept that there can be no more secrets revealed

Tidal waves are rolling back home from the sea
They're running on empty, but still running free
I woke up on the shore there
The sea had washed me again
Like a fish in the ocean
that can not feel any pain
And never cares where it's goin'
It just waits and sees
Sometimes swims against the stream
just to see how it feels

We travel our highway and pretend not to know
about the world around us in our pigeonhole
In the midst of the vipers who are preying our souls
There's nothing more to ask for when you're away from their claws
The fate has brought us here beyond the war zone
Truth stuffed in a garbage can, let's close the lid and run

There is no choice but to follow
The feeling is warm 'n hollow
Every hour is a minute
Every noise a sound
It will turn your life around

But you turned away
Turn away, you'd turn away
