I put my message in a bottle An threw it out into the sea I let it go north with a freight train So it could reach the midnight sun So it could reach the midnight sun I let it catch the pa**ing south wind On a journey through a desert land But every morning when I woke up It was just coming back to me It was just coming back to me I scratched the surface Wanted to break through To find out what it hides Inside the closed an hidden chambers Inside sealed and puzzled night Inside the sealed and puzzled night I scratched my skin I just had to break through To find out what I hide inside My precious body in the moonlight Inside my puzzled arcs of sound Inside my puzzled arcs of sound I tried to walk through en aye of a needle Pa** through an hourgla** I even swam under sic glowing bridges
To set my message free But it was just coming back to me I tried to dance on the edge of an hour Break through my wars of will I even scanned the complete horizon To set my message free But it was just coming back to me But it was just coming back to me I looked out across the old river I looked straight into the eye of the dawn I saw the fishermen carry their burden And expected the wind to bring me a song I expected the wind to bring me a song But the morning continued in silence The sounds were hiding behind the clouds They'll be back with the soaring seagulls They will bring me my message back They will bring me my arcs of sound On the edge of an hour Through an hourgla** The complete horizon To set my message free But it was just coming back to me But it was just coming back to me
