Arriving Somewhere But Not Here

Never stop the car on a drive in the dark

Never look for the truth in your mother's eyes

Never trust the sound of rain upon a river rushing

Through your ears



Arriving somewhere but not here



Could you imagine the final sound as a gun

Or the smashing windscreen of a car?

Did you ever imagine the last thing you'd hear as you're fading out

Was a song?



Arriving somewhere but not here



All my designs, simplified

And all of my plans, compromised

And all of my dreams, sacrificed



Ever had the feeling you've been here before?

Drinking down the poison the way you were taught

Ever thought from here on in your life begins

And all you knew was wrong?



Arriving somewhere but not here



All my designs, simplified

And all of my plans, compromised

And all of my dreams...



Did you see the redness block your part?

Did the scissors cut a way to your heart?

Did you feel the end before the suns of mothers

Tearing you apart?



Arriving somewhere but not here
