The Only Way to Reach the Surface Songtext
von NORD

How could I
Just write
Something about you
I spend my whole life
Underwater
I was born inside
The reflections of your faces
And you never shared
Places for me

Fall
Falling with pride
Extracting my flesh from yours
Hiding myself
In the dark
And write
Writing about ghost and fire
To find a spark
In this chaosphere called Earth


And you cried a lot
But you smiled at every fight
And the consequence
Is the end
Of all your tries
And I′ll do what's right
To give all of this a sense
To take you to the highest
Tower of selfishness

And I always thought it was you
And Death could be the answer
But I′ve got many things to do
I'm frightened
They're calling me again

But that′s the truth
About myself
I swim, I swim
In the abyss
And when I′m ready
I chain my hands
In the deepest sadness
I can fake

YOU'RE SO CLOSE
YOU′RE SO PETRIFIED
YOU'RE SO CLOSE
YOU′RE SO PETRIFIED


YOU'RE THE ONLY WAY TO REACH THE SURFACE
YOU′RE THE ONLY WAY TO REACH THE SURFACE
YOU'RE THE ONLY WAY TO REACH THE SURFACE
YOU'RE THE ONLY WAY TO REACH THE SURFACE

And I don′t want to leave today
They′re calling me again
And I don't want to leave today
They′re calling me again

And I'm still dancing
Like we were two

And I′ve seen
So many goodbyes
For so many fucking reasons
There's an inside
And an outside
And I don′t know what's the worst
And my head is just a mess
My thoughts
An old disaster
If one day
I reach the surface
I know I will be stronger
Cause you left me injured
You left
Before the jump
And I can't see an evolution
You can′t feel
The power of my eyes
And I can see you dance
And all the times
I had to spend on you
And my ego
Your flesh, our friends
And all your cries
Are buried with this
Beautiful lie
We called
You-And-Me
But can′t you
SEE
FLAMES
THIS TOWN IS
A COFFIN
SEE
THE FLAME
THE ROOF
IS FALLING
TONIGHT
