caressing a paper bag
He smiles to himself
as he recollects time gone by
Ghosts before his eyes
Remem bering faces
he's loved and lost
Even the faces,
he could not trust his last game
Preach them all the same
Oh, retrospective
accrual brain
Sometimes I fear I'm still in the cave
But lonely thoughts in an empty
room with si lence
It's enough to wake the dead
It's enough to wake the dead
It's enough to wake the dead
Now experience being so re lative
He senses his path lies nearer
for the heart of his be ing -beings
For the love maliciously grows in souls,
the seeds that may never be
fertilized in his life
Maybe knowledge will suffice
Ah, retrospect is a cruel break
Sometimes I fear I'm still vindicated
By lonely thoughts in an empty room
The silence
It's enough to wake the dead
It's enough to wake the dead
It's enough to wake the dead
After escaping the spider's web,
he thought freedom
would be an easy task
but how wrong, his prison is now this song
So he looks for the key in
the paper bag,
as he smiles to himself
he feels the lack of what's gone
There's now only what's beyond
Oh, retrospect is a cruel way
Sometimes I fear I'm still in the kit
But lonely thoughts in an empty room
Decided it's enough to wake the dead
It's enough to wake the dead
It's enough to wake the dead
I'm
You
