Elation and Despair Songtext
von The Silence

Design unknown inside the velveteen
Caressed, destroy the Shangri-La (lahahaha)
Who knows magic?
The TV screen where I glow and I glow and I glow...
Stare inside this ugly box and turn to stone
That′s right- it's my life too
Am I breathing? Watch me die in your arms... Am I sinking? As I drown into you...
Hide and seek a place to breathe as you... my fall
Design unknown inside the velveteen
Caressed destroy the Shangri-La (lalalala)


Who knows magic?
The TV screams for you
Stare inside this ugly box and turn to stone
That′s right- its my life too
Yes, ten seconds of love, million seconds of hate
Spit out my insecurities
I have nothing left to give
A blank clock spins backwards only they can tell time
Inside their eyes of stone
Outside the idiot box you built for me
