Lyrics

TODAY

She walks every night
In a world without air
And there?s blood on her hands
There?s death in her hair.
Watch her crawl
To the surfacing world
It ripples and shimmers
In the eyes of a girl.

When you?ve seen through the mirror, how can you unlearn?
Or make a return to straight lines?
Well, they say that in time we?ll be saved ?
It?s a lie.
All we have is today.

They tore her away
From the place she was born
Now she spends all her days
Just trying to get home
And the faces she meets
Drift like foam on the seas / Drift like clouds on the breeze
And the pain in her chest
Brings her down to her knees.

When you?ve seen through the mirror, how can you unlearn?
Or make a return to straight lines?
Well, they say that in time we?ll be saved ?
It?s a lie.
All we have is today.

Ah -
Soon I?ll be under the earth
In dreams again.
