Echoes of Longing: A Journey Through Memories
Lyrics
You’re crying out in the lounge tonight
You express distress in the living room tonight
You leave at nine on the last flight
You depart at nine on the final flight
You travelled from somewhere long ago
You journeyed from a distant past
Armed with your older ghosts
Armed with the memories of your earlier selves
The ones you need the most
These are the ghosts you rely on the most
Maybe they’ll treat me like the one
Perhaps they will treat me like the chosen one
Maybe I’m dumb but I won’t bite
Maybe I lack understanding, but I won't retaliate
And through the haze cut through the night
Penetrating through the confusion, slicing through the night
Maybe I don’t get you
Perhaps I don't comprehend you
Twilight starts my fall again
The twilight marks the beginning of my descent again
Maybe I’m done
Maybe I'm finished
Or have I just begun
Or is this just the start for me
You miss the days of the Commodore
You long for the times of the Commodore computer
Behind a bolted door
Behind a securely locked door
Been left out on the floor
Abandoned and left on the floor
You sold your soul a long time ago
You surrendered your integrity long ago
Away from monochrome
Away from a dull, uniform existence
But now you’re out alone
But now you're wandering alone
Maybe they’ll treat me like the one
Maybe they will regard me as special
Maybe I’m dumb but I won’t bite
Perhaps I lack understanding, but I won't retaliate
And through the haze cut through the night
Penetrating through the confusion, slicing through the night
Maybe I don’t get you
Perhaps I don't comprehend you
Twilight starts my fall again
The twilight marks the beginning of my descent again
Maybe I’m done
Maybe I'm finished
Or have I just begun
Or is this just the start for me
Alone like a telescope
Isolated like a telescope
Like you had broke the mold
As if you had shattered expectations
Maybe they’ll treat me like the one
Maybe they will regard me as special
Maybe I’m dumb but I won’t bite
Perhaps I lack understanding, but I won't retaliate
And through the haze cut through the night
Penetrating through the confusion, slicing through the night
Maybe I don’t get you
Perhaps I don't comprehend you
Twilight starts my fall again
The twilight marks the beginning of my descent again
Maybe I’m gone
Maybe I'm departed
Or have I just begun
Or is this just the start for me
