Porcelain

Skin frozen by denial
Lip-stained porcelain
Grey light through the window pane
Your key without a chain
You're everywhere
You're everywhere
You're everywhere I go in the rooms
You're everywhere
You're everywhere
You're every step I hear on the wood

Paris in the cold tonight
The sun has gone to hide behind the Zoo
Third floor living with a view
I didn't know who it was
"She's got kids as old as you"
The sound of rattling from the keys in her hand
"Get your shoes we're leaving soon"
I didn't want to leave my home
She took her black coat from the hanger
Her paintings needled to the wall
She helped me with my gloves and sweater
She didn't want me to be cold
On the floor there were my shoes
Lit by lights of the outside corridor
A single step outside the door
I didn't know if I'd come back

We could've turned out to be different
But now I'm glad the years have passed
All this time where you've been my friend
I just feel like I really want you to know
In the space where we would sing
The hours they would never last
We told ourselves so many things
And it felt like walking above the clouds
Do you remember the sound
Of flying in and out of our dreams?
We spent our summers in here
Trying to figure out what it means
You gave me strength to be someone
I grew up to be just like you
You're like the brother I never had
And I feel like I really want you to know
We wrote pages of memories
I'll cherish 'til the day I die
We believed in what we did
And I feel like it's gonna pay off sometime
Do you remember the sound
Of flying in and out of our dreams?
We spent our summers in here
Trying to figure out what it means

Safer in my room in 2002
I'm an only child
I don't mind being lonely
My LEGOs spread around
The buzzing of my bedside lamp
And the neighbours fight to the sound
Of my mother dancing
'cause life isn't bad in those times
The goads that the world provides
Some peace and some quiet for just a while
'cause life isn't bad in those times
Friday night arrived, my friends they are going out
And I'll ask about
All of that on Monday morning
I'd rather spend the night, my guitar on my lap
Working on a track
'till the light of Sunday's dawning
'cause life isn't bad in those times
The goads that the world provides
Some peace and some quiet for just a while
'cause life isn't bad in those times

Spirit that I buried in my dreams
Do you mind if I just stay in my bed?
I always feel your presence in my sleep
Making myself bigger than I am
You stand above the sand from underneath
I get hopeful when you ask to dig out
And excavate my troubles for you to see
Making myself bigger than I am
We met when we were both seventeen
I was lost and I was sure of dying young
I didn't have too many things for me
Bringing myself closer to the wall
The train arrived and we both took a seat
And your smile had shed a light on my sight
I always feel your presence in my sleep
Making myself bigger than I am

Waking up in the evening
Inside the blandest maze
I'm tiny cracks on my ceiling
A new idea is dying
The floor is calling me
What's the point of awakening?
The screams of my illusions
Echo in my head
I heard there was a solution
I duck, evade and deny it
I won't do this today
I'd rather sleep forever
Everything I've gathered
Has turned my faith in pain
I keep on looking for answers
I might have felt so relentless
I almost forgot my name
I guess I'm the one to blame for this
But I can see through the rain
The light at the end of the lane
Maybe I'll get it someday
I care about you I'm afraid
You trick me by night and by day
Maybe I'll tame you someday

Tension's the way and I feel it running
The crowd fills the stage but I'm just dreaming
Colours have faded, God I wish they'd stay
But I see and hear it, that I'm just dreaming
Trust in a broken time, how can I go now?
Truth is a memory
Answer me please now
Shattered the time I know, we might get along and stay
But I see and heart it, that I'm just dreaming
Pressured to stay, I feel it's fading
The smiles left the stage and I'm not dreaming
Colours are changing
Got the pieces in my hand
But I see and hear it, that I'm just leaving

This journey's coming to an end, so let's go out
To drink and dance until the sun comes back
Croatia feels so warm since spring arrived
But in the morning we'll have to go back to life
The boys in black and all the girls looked pretty nice
Your hair tied above your neck so tanned
We went to town and on the way we sang out loud
The sun was dying on the waves as the night came down
What if I'd know what I know now?
What if I'd done everything right?
What if we'd had a whole other time?
I guess I could leave you behind
No more years to paint the frame, you cut my nights
I'm laying, wasted, on the edge of time
It's making me feel sad to see your eyes
'cause I don't know if they could ever shine in mine
What if I'd know what I know now?
What if I'd done everything right?
What if we'd had a whole other time?
I guess I could leave you behind
