| Lyrics: | Waiting for Wonderland)
Searching for diamonds in the sulphur
mine, leaning on props
which are rotten,
hoping for anything, looking for a sign
that I am not
forgotten.
Lost in a labyrinth of future mystery,
tracing my steps, all
mistaken,
trusting to everything, praying it can be
that I am not forsaken.
I
wait by the door, wondering
when you will come and keep me warm.
I pray for the end of the
night,
hoping the light will still the storm
which presently betrays me;
helpless
sea-monster stranded on the
shore, marooned in an ecstasy of waiting.
I yearn, although
knowing that I shall
dive no more
in the tide already racing
My lungs burst to
cry: "Finally
how could you leave me here to die?
I freeze in the chill of this
place
with no friendly face to smile goodbye -
how could you let it
happen?"
How could you let it happen?
Dreams, hopes and promises, fragments
out
of time;
all of these things have been spoken;
still you don't understand how it
feels
when I'm waiting for them to be broken |
