lyrics

All I have's an open book, a tome that tells me time's been put on hold
That's why I don't want to know, because every time I land I turn to stone
Looks like a familiar scene but turns out that it wasn't even there
And camouflage is not a mask

When I think I'm homing in I find that I am somehow cut adrift
Shadows in the water help remind me of the things that don't exist
I thought of what you said and though I can't be without you I can't be here
I can't be here, there's nothing here

I want to tell you something and I hope you'll understand
But my shadow's in the water and you're floating in my hand

You're born alone, you die alone and in between you learn to find your way
And in a sense your innocence will light the path down which you walk today
The weight of shame was never there, when you went missing I was on my way
And camouflage is not a mask
