Have We Let Our Fear of Dying Kill Us?

i can see the red moon rising

full of fear

she beckons you to follow...

and you abide.

there are no hands that can

choke you like your own

yours are the only arms that can hold you

when you’re all alone.

 

do you ever feel lonely

when you’re not alone?

and do you ever feel like you’re lost

when you’re at home?

 

you can lock yourself inside a cage

and throw me the key

but let’s face it

we’re only pretending...

‘cause the heart, you know, she’s made of water

toss her in the river and you’ll lose yourself forever

that cage of yours,

she can slip right through

but she’ll stay inside to please the mind

until it sees the truth.

 

do you ever feel lonely

when you’re not alone?

and do you ever feel like you’re lost

when you’re at home?

 

if you do...

if you, if you feel it too

you’re not the only one

in the deepness

beneath our differences

we’re all the same...

we all feel the pain.

 

can you see

can you see me, baby?

you gotta look inside to see

if you reach deep enough

you’ll touch the part of you...

that’s me.

the part of you that’s me... yeah.

 

i can see the red moon rising

shining, full of fear

take my hand, we’ll go on together

‘cause we got nothing to hide

we can choke each other 

‘til we reach the light

and then we’ll hold each other, baby

‘cause it was all just fine.

 

do you ever feel lonely

when you’re not alone?

do you ever feel like you’re lost

when you’re right at home?

 

do you ever, ever

do you ever feel

do you ever, do you ever feel

lonely?

do you ever, ever

lost when you’re at home.

 

if you do

if you, if you feel it too

you’re not the only one

in the deepness

beneath our differences

we’re all the same...

we all feel the pain.
