One sound, one single sound
One kiss, one single kiss
A face outside the window pane
However did it come to this?
A man who ran,
a child who cried
A girl who heard,
a voice that lied
The sun that
burned a fiery red
The vision of an empty bed
The use of force,
he was so tough
She'll soon submit,
she's had enough
The march of fate,
the broken will
Someone is lying very still
He has laughed
and he has cried
He has fought and he has died
He's just the same
as all the rest
He's not the worst,
he's not the best
And still this ceaseless
murmuring
The babbling that I brook
The seas of faces,
eyes upraised
The empty screen,
the vacant look
A man in black
on a snow white horse,
A pointless life
has run its course,
The red rimmed eyes,
the tears still run
As he fades into
the setting sun
