Verse 1:
Life without memory is no life at all
I can only wait for the final amnesia
The one that can erase an entire life
Helpless, demented,
confused, disoriented
You stand afraid
As I blink, decades away
Interlude:
Each time, he blinks, he dies
Thinking, erase, the sky
Verse 2:
Fiction overwelms while the truth intrudes
The heart of life fades away
Struggling to building a new reality
Interlude:
Each breath, looks like, the first
My fears, feel like, the last
Chorus:
Stuck in a meaningless moment
No recognition reaches
No knowledge of the end in sight
How can he escape this dream?
When will it all make sense?
A dim bulb shining opaque
Lacuna of forgetfulness
Has he already, ceased to be?
Bridge:
The pages no longer make sense to me
This story ended before it began
I know the face, but not this scared up man/Mariner
