Second track of 'Sounds True'. The song divides into three parts, which each give a different use to the 11/8 time signature.
lyrics
Hey now you in my mind
I've been looking tired
Why have you told me nothing?
Hey girl look in my eyes
Look for another scar
I can't see its hard
All I couldn't decide
Forgotten in the sand
Sinking more and more with my footsteps
Now hello devil friend
won't you stop my arms
Holding what I can't have
I think that we're getting caught up
Seeking what we have achieved
Laying my head on your body I can see
We're just lacking a mindset
Old but we still can't see
Life has no more to offer than liberty
I see that we're moving forward
Finally holding the key
Unlocking horror and terror openly
Now that I heard your voice
Keep it down let me make my choice
All the things that you told me I can be
All the time I have seen the world in pain
Has come to an end and with you
I can not put excuses for the rain has
Washed me away
Your voice gives me the strength
To afflict all the people that hurt
For I have found the path I will follow
For the last time I will look back
I will see the rain.
