Canto III (Canto Terzo)
[Verse]
Our hearts are gone now
Our hearts are broken
Ghosts of homes to us remain
To a friend's unspoken pain
Would it have been worth to turn
Before one set a pillow over my face
Watch me as I learn to unlearn
Mermaids sing as the seasburn
My eyes can't see
[Chorus]
Someone said remember
I can't remember anything at all
The lies are old but you tell them so well
Will you smile at me again?
Will you find mе afterall?
[Verse]
I have squeezed thе Universe into a ball
Over voices dying with a dying fall
There will be time to murder and create
Asleep... Tired... Leaning out of windows
Will I hear the broken afternoon?
Or understand the day is gone?
Will I know to rise at morning?
When I'll hammer another nail?
My self can't be
[Chorus]
Someone said remember
I can't remember anything at all
The lies are old but you tell them so well
Will you smile at me again?
Will you find me afterall?
[Referenced dialogue]
"- What is it you're trying to do with your life?
- Play the piano for people
- I am not clear. How is it that playing the piano eventually has resulted in you beeing here at the hospital?
- I sit differently when I play the piano and when I am away from the piano I occasionally look differently from other people... and this has caused... dislike."
[Break - Special]
Light decays in me
I fail my useless days
Everything is real
But I am not here
The rope wasn't mine
But I wore it tight
Tied-tied to a time
Write-write and remind you of
When we could dream...
[Chorus]
Someone said remember
I can't remember anything at all
The lies are old but you tell them so well
Will you smile at me again?
Will you find me afterall?
[Outro]
The violence of allmost
Made a stranger of me
Worms at my feet eat
My blood and tears
I am where pity lives
When it is truly dead
I take my pills, they disappear
The people that I've known...
