Harakiri For The Sky - The Traces We Leave lyrics

I can't remember why I left my hometown And why I moved to this city, that got me stranded by the tide I wonder who I was those days and who I'm going to be But to secure peace is still the best way to prepare for war This world made me an alcoholic This world makes me wanna die in my sleep This world made me a junkie, dyed-in-the-wool This world made me a razoreater, a homeless fool... No Man is an Island, entire of itself Every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main I am involved in mankind, and so are you Cause we are both part of this vast and moribund clutter And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls Cause it tolls for you and me... ...it tolls for you and me... I didn't believe you, as you once compared love to flames But I guess you were right, cause both leave nothing but ashes For me, love was never tied to conditions In the end I loved you... ...but I chose darkness... I chose darkness... My dear I lost you, as this city lost me We lost our shelter, we even lost the sea Day after day keeps elapsing, some day we'll call it years I'm on my own now... ...but every stranger looks like you... The traces we leave are vague, but they still catch sight Sadly, I'm still lost in this city where I shouldn't be at all It's hard to wake up from a nightmare, when you're not even asleep But this world breaks everyone, and afterwards some are strong at the broken places...
