Never stop the car on a drive in the dark
Never look for the truth in your mother's eyes
Never trust the sound of rain upon a river rushing
Through your ears
Arriving somewhere but not here
Could you imagine the final sound as a gun
Or the smashing windscreen of a car?
Did you ever imagine the last thing you'd hear as you're fading out
Was a song?
Arriving somewhere but not here
[Chorus:]
All my designs, simplified
And all of my plans, compromised
And all of my dreams, sacrificed
Ever had the feeling you've been here before?
Drinking down the poison the way you were taught
Ever thought from here on in your life begins
And all you knew was wrong?
Arriving somewhere but not here
All my designs, simplified
And all of my plans, compromised
And all of my dreams...
Did you see the redness block your part?
Did the scissors cut a way to your heart?
Did you feel the end before the suns of mothers
Tearing you apart?
Arriving somewhere but not here
Never look for the truth in your mother's eyes
Never trust the sound of rain upon a river rushing
Through your ears
Arriving somewhere but not here
Could you imagine the final sound as a gun
Or the smashing windscreen of a car?
Did you ever imagine the last thing you'd hear as you're fading out
Was a song?
Arriving somewhere but not here
[Chorus:]
All my designs, simplified
And all of my plans, compromised
And all of my dreams, sacrificed
Ever had the feeling you've been here before?
Drinking down the poison the way you were taught
Ever thought from here on in your life begins
And all you knew was wrong?
Arriving somewhere but not here
All my designs, simplified
And all of my plans, compromised
And all of my dreams...
Did you see the redness block your part?
Did the scissors cut a way to your heart?
Did you feel the end before the suns of mothers
Tearing you apart?
Arriving somewhere but not here
