Lyrics
Still Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We all have moments
Frozen for, no reason
What we say, what we do
Self-portraits
Don't be afraid
We can fall no further
Than beyond the edge of our perceptions
Before my eyes
I see you like an alibi
It's not like it used to be
Do you ever wonder
Why we remember and why we forget
As you watch yourself
In the fire of a cigarette
Or prevent the demolition of a
Large public building
Before my eyes
I see you like an alibi
It's not like it used to be
Every picture in a special frame
They remain the same
Still life
Dawn breaking through a silver sky
You and I
Still life
Before my eyes
I see you like, an alibi
It's not like it used to be
You see what's right and what's wrong
A kiss to drown in
Sweet child of paradise
Each eye cuts it's own diamond
Every picture in a special frame
They remain the same
Still life
Dawn breaking 'cross a silver sky
You and I still life
Every picture in a special frame
They remain the same
Still life
Dawn breaking 'cross a silver sky
You and I still life
