The Traces We Leave lyrics

I can't remember why I left my hometown

And why I moved to this city, that got me stranded by the tide

I wonder who I was those days and who I'm going to be

But to secure peace is still the best way to prepare for war

This world made me an alcoholic

This world makes me wanna die in my sleep

This world made me a junkie, dyed-in-the-wool

This world made me a razor-eater, a homeless fool

No Man is an Island, entire of itself

Every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main

I am involved in mankind, and so are you

'Cause we are both part of this vast and moribund clutter

And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls

'Cause it tolls for you and me, it tolls for you and me

It tolls for you, for you and me

I didn't believe you, as you once compared love to flames

But I guess you were right, 'cause both leave nothing but ashes

For me, love was never tied to conditions

In the end I loved you but I chose darkness

I chose darkness

I chose darkness

My dear I lost you, as this city lost me

We lost our shelter, we even lost the sea

Day after day keeps elapsing, some day we'll call it years

I'm on my own now but every stranger looks like you

The traces we leave are vague, but they still catch sight

Sadly, I'm still lost in this city where I shouldn't be at all

It's hard to wake up from a nightmare

When you're not even asleep

But this world breaks everyone

And afterwards some are strong at the broken places
