lyrics

After the curtains fell I lost myself
No skin between me and the world
I was a mouth, a mind, a pair of eyes
I forgot everything I learned

Ever uncomfortable with myself and you
Always awash with hope I would change into
Somebody who knew
In my dreams
A human with a point of view
In my dreams
I am made anew

I longed for somebody to guide me then
Someone to feed me all my lines
You touched my hands and tried to make me move
But I hadn't anything to give

Terrified of myself I would start a fight
Watching your face fall in the maroon light
And it didn't hurt my pride
In my dreams
And it didn't bleed me dry
In my dreams
And it didn't make you mine
And you didn't leave my side

I am, I am
