[Verse 1]
I've been keeping secrets
Since the sun stopped shining on my skin
I've been feeling heavy
From the weather, the air I'm breathing

[Verse 2]
Outside in the garden I'd sit with the flowers
Counting their colours to break up the hours
And what we learned from the books
We lost in the riots

[Chorus 1]
So much for all of those beautiful paperbacks
Now everything I own comes ready plastic wrapped
I look at you all but there's no eye contact
Too much space between me and who's staring back

[Verse 3]
Hopеlessly the motions
That I go through take up all my timе
Expanding and contracting in my mind
And trying to block the light

[Verse 4]
Before there was fire the future was here
But all I could keep were these strange souvenirs
No matter our intentions
It always ends in tears, in tears
[Chorus 2]
So much for all of us beauty will fade to black
Now everything we own comes ready plastic wrapped
And I look at you all but there's never eye contact
Too much space between me and the looking glass

[Verse 5]
But when I make my final discovery
Maybe then, maybe then you'll notice me?
But no one, no one feels anything
Before it's too late just like human beings
