It's tragic--keeps on happening all the time

It's the kind of thing that i fear

I feel i'm making no headway

Walls i know are starting to disappear



It's like they'd never existed, strange but true

As sure as i'm talking to you

Now you see it, now i don't want to frighten you

But i'm simply here standing alone



Chorus i:



Trapped in these shadows that belong to missing persons

Names faded from memory join the list and then mark time

Once i would have been glad to have made your acquaintance

Now i feel a danger brought about by circumstance



Obsessed, the quality of life escapes me now

It's one of the things i lack

From the east and to the west

I feel it's time that i was heading back



I can't control these feelings that i have

I've never been one to hide

Become a pillar of society

But don't let your morals slide



Chorus ii:



Or you can find that you've become a missing person

A here today gone tomorrow breeze and lost in the night

Once i would have been glad to have made your acquaintance

Now i feel a danger brought about by circumstance



But i know in the end, i'll be safe, we'll be happy

After finding myself we'll be fine

Any problems we have will be gone in a moment

I'll become just a state of the mind



I want you close

I need you near

You have to be here

I turned around

You've gone again



Chorus i



Chorus ii
