Renaissance - Missing Persons lyrics

It's tragic--keeps on happening all the time It's the kind of thing that I fear I feel I'm making no headway Walls I know are starting to disappear It's like they'd never existed, strange but true As sure as I'm talking to you Now you see it, now I don't want to frighten you But I'm simply here standing alone Trapped in these shadows that belong to missing persons Names faded from memory join the list and then mark time Once I would have been glad to have made your acquaintance Now I feel a danger brought about by circumstance Obsessed, the quality of life escapes me now It's one of the things I lack From the east and to the west I feel it's time that I was heading back I can't control these feelings that I have I've never been one to hide Become a pillar of society But don't let your morals slide Or you can find that you've become a missing person A here today gone tomorrow breeze and lost in the night Once I would have been glad to have made your acquaintance Now I feel a danger brought about by circumstance But I know in the end, I'll be safe, we'll be happy After finding myself we'll be fine Any problems we have will be gone in a moment I'll become just a state of the mind I want you close I need you near You have to be here I turned around You've gone again Trapped in these shadows that belong to missing persons Names faded from memory join the list and then mark time Once I would have been glad to have made your acquaintance Now I feel a danger brought about by circumstance Or you can find that you've become a missing person A here today gone tomorrow breeze and lost in the night Once I would have been glad to have made your acquaintance Now I feel a danger brought about by circumstance
