A Thousand Days Before

Life, a thousand days ago
Hours sinking in a hole
Try to melt into the walls
Now I am here inside the bowl
Here in the cold
Where no one stayed behind me
Now a thousand days have gone again
Like the sun and moon at war
And give or take a thousand more
Here in the cold
Where no one stands behind me
I’ll be on my own side
You know where to find me
You know where to find me
Here in the cold
Where no one stands beside me
I’ll be on my own side
You know where to find me
You know where to find me
Born with a thousand little holes
And a tear to fill up every one
I’ll be on my own side
I’ll be on my own side
