Living behind the dark side of the sun
Everyone's here but nobody comes
Things are finished before they've begun
Life is beautiful behind the sun
You may see
You may care
We're still here
You're still there
Everyone's happy life is sweet
Parallel lines that never meet
It's cold and lonely but we still believe
The waters rise and no relief
You may see
You may care
We're still here
You're still there
If you come to help me you're wasting your time
But if your struggle is bound up with mine
And we've begun and from each one behind the sun
Promises made
But nothings done
Forgotten ones
Behind the sun
If you've come to help me
(promises made)
You're wasting your time
(but nothings done)
But if your struggle
(forgotten ones)
Is bound up with mine
(behind the sun)
If you come to help me
(behind the sun)
You're wasting your time
(behind the sun)
