Alas, our love is gone At least I don't where it is I know I lost it in my song once But I thought I found it in your kiss So I went and had my skull cleaned They gave me a suitcase for my rage And a balloon to hold my steam And a tightrope to embrace Now I know how to live alone In a crowd or in your arms But I don't know how to be alive
In the mirror or at your side "It's not so easy," said the rain "You want the wound but not the pain To be forgiven but not betrayed To stand naked and unashamed It's not so easy," said the rain Give me your tongue Don't say a word Give me your hunger and your pride I'll give you the song, the mockingbird I'll give you the color of the sky
