Lost in the Cosmos (Song for Chris Bell) Songtext
von Sons of Bill

Dangerous and desperate and young
Fixing your eyes on the distant horizon and waiting for dawn
For the sun to shine on
Something so pure and so bright
You caught it in glimpses but never could catch it, the harder you try
It′s still passing you by
But the farther and farther you crawl, bringing it home don't make no sense at all
Seeking your way from the lines lying under the snowfall


Weary but carrying on
Don′t you march to the beat of a heart that's been beating too hard for too long
Too hard for too long
Green and yet some kind of blue
You once were the watcher, but now it's so clear they′re all looking at you
And they′re staring right through
But the faces grow dim with the lights
And all the old melodies holding you tight
As they all steal away like a thief in the night, ain't it shameful

Lost in the cosmos again, deeper and deeper in what could have been,
As the fits and the starts they go spinning around in your brain
You just should have listened to me, all that there is now is all there can be
Lighting your way and fighting away the pain
