lyrics

Lay me down
It don’t really matter
Upon the floor, at the door
To the threshold we turn

Stand up strong
Though you may be in tatters
We’re on the shore and what is more
We may not return

I know you’re losing the eyes to see the truth
Your inner vision is clouded
The ugly feelings remind you of the youth
Which you no longer connect

And all the things that had binded me to you
Has been unravelled or shrouded
And what had been a folie a deux
Is just a memory you forget

Your name
It doesn’t matter
Your face
You will soon forget
Our eyes
Beaming into one another
Leave a trace in anyone you’ve ever met

Your name
It doesn’t matter
Your face
You will soon forget
Our eyes
Beaming into one another
In the place where the sunset sets

Lay me down
It don’t really matter
Upon the floor, at the door
To the threshold we turn

And stand up strong
I know your heart has been shattered
Every day light the way
With the bridges we burn

I know you think you’ve been blinded by the truth
You feel attacked and surrounded
The ugly feelings remind you of the youth
Which you no longer connect

And everything that had binded me to you
Just leaves you sad and confounded
What once had been a folie a deux
Is just a memory you detest

Your name
It doesn’t matter
Your face
You will soon forget
Our eyes
Beaming into one another
Leave a trace in anyone you’ve ever met

Your name
It doesn’t matter
Your face
You will soon forget
Our eyes
Beaming into one another
In the place where the sunset sets
