Second Skin
The sound of words I longed for saidSo far pleasure undeniedJust the bloodless touch of skinClose your eyes and turnThe storm, the fray persistsColumns form in endless rainNo loss of courage or the willNo dignity in stayingThere is no love that can endureEnvelop or protect youForward go to open seasThe quest it is your masterNo time for you to heal yourselfI wish there'd been another wayIn time I hope you'll see me asThe one who held you above the wavesYour hope becomes your second skinTo envelop and protect youThe joys were never undeservedThe greatness hid no doubtSo much that you denied yourselfAnd so much that you never knewLong realized, the only choiceThe empty streets in rain Aus Songtexte Mania
