Out Of Reach

Chapter August 2002 - Night Meeting

On the road of disillusions,
in the land of broken dreams
From the city of confusions,
scared to death I'm running - or so it seems

In the sun my heart is freezing,
mind is boiling in the shade
And a mean mirage is teasing
'cross the endless desert, that's due to fade out

By now, but still around
Makes me wonder why we're here
on this unholy ground

I feel you're near, I hear your call, I see your shadow on the wall
I know you're here day after day, but every time - one step away
Divided only in our mind, why can't we see another's side?
Out of my fear I'll build the bridge - you are so close but out of reach

I can't tell you where I'm going,
I can't tell you where I've been
I just run without knowing
what I did, you know what, just what I mean?

I gave up on understanding,
I let go the foolish pride
Won't expect a happy ending -
not this time, I know it - but it's alright

'coz me and you're the same -
even 1000 years apart
I got someone to blame

We were looking at each other
while the ones we'll never see,
Only feel, have slowly passed you...
and me.

I feel you're near, I hear your call, I see your shadow on the wall
I know you're here day after day, but every time - one step away
Divided only in our mind, why can't we see another's side?
Out of my fear I'll build the bridge - you are so close but out of reach
