Over my shoulder there’s a heart that suffers deep
The sudden exposure makes my mind recall the scene
Over my shoulder there’s a lonely hearted thief
You only know me like the shoreline knows the sea
We raise the stones just like beginnings
We make our home above the stars again
Behold
Over my shoulder there’s a man that doesn’t speak
Woe expectations they will only make you weep
You only know me like the shoreline knows the sea
Over my shoulder there are phantoms indiscreet
We chase the tones as the sight begins
The gate is open and silence showers in
So behold the science: We all have our themes to play
Besides there’s a life outside where our lucky passions reign
You only hold me like the canyon holds the stream
You only hold me as the canyon holds the stream
Relax, we’re safe and that’s all that matters
Be still unto life outside when all our passions rage
Rage
