Ribbons of Steel Songtext
I believe my life could take another direction
But my convictions falter
I remember how the shadows vanished in the movement of sunlight
As I return, just in time from the old country, back to the city
I didn′t know then I would never see you again
Today, of all days, the day that shook our world
Now, a spring inside me is broken
And nothing is like it used to be
I wrote you letters, hopeful of tomorrow But I'm not sure they ever arrived
Did they vanish like autumn leaves do?
Abandoned, decayed by time?
Or maybe you just gave up on me?
Was I your dangerous distraction, or was I just not enough?
Now I see it all so clearly: I know nothing
I never heard the division bell
Not by choice, but separated by ribbons of steel
I′m trapped on the wrong side, or is it the right side?
But my convictions falter
I remember how the shadows vanished in the movement of sunlight
As I return, just in time from the old country, back to the city
I didn′t know then I would never see you again
Today, of all days, the day that shook our world
Now, a spring inside me is broken
And nothing is like it used to be
I wrote you letters, hopeful of tomorrow But I'm not sure they ever arrived
Did they vanish like autumn leaves do?
Abandoned, decayed by time?
Or maybe you just gave up on me?
Was I your dangerous distraction, or was I just not enough?
Now I see it all so clearly: I know nothing
I never heard the division bell
Not by choice, but separated by ribbons of steel
I′m trapped on the wrong side, or is it the right side?
