The video is a little creepy, sad, intriguing and classy at the same time. And it tells a story. My first introduction to Duncan Sheik was through a friend. Subsequently, Spring Awakening put him on my mind's map. But I guess, it had to do with the time I discovered him (I had other things happening in my life) - that I never really dug deeper. Today some random YouTube browsing brought me to his music again. And this time around, I was in the perfect mood to explore.
What are you looking at, what do you see? Is it the truth or a strange fantasy? Whenever you're watching You're changing the scene Time is a place, this place is a song Where mothers are distant and fathers are gone He too may be watching but he's not letting on
Can't dry your eyes Or say it's alright Even though he might And she can't kiss your cheek As the days become weeks No rewind No repeats Days, nights, wrongs, rights, earthbound starlight
Hey, are you listening? What is the sound of things that you lose that you never have found? You're finding the way Or turning around Dancer with destiny Tempter of fate The life that you lived is only a taste Sometimes the sweetest is the time that you waste
I won't dry your eyes Or say it's alright 'Cause sometimes that's the lie [ Duncan Sheik Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ] Even if she kissed your cheek Still the days become weeks No rewind No repeats Steal your heart Life is hard Never easy, believe me
Need no more questions Maybes are mights Darkness descends, run out of light When you go blind You get second sight The deeper you dive The greater the heights
So don't dry your eyes Or say it's alright Life is hard It's a fight Even if she kissed your cheek Still the days become weeks No rewind No repeats As the days become weeks No remind No repeats Days, nights, wrongs, rights, earthbound starlight
