Lifeboats

Watching the faded smiles See these actors walking asleep Like lifeboats stranded on the ocean Floating alone But down here in the dark In this theatre of the cold and alone No more hidden scars Step out of the wings Into the unknown Look in my eyes See how they shine bright Watching our dreams take flight As we sparkle and shine Searching these darkened streets For some trace of meaning Lifeboats on the ocean Tracing footsteps back home But down here in the dark In this theatre of the cold and alone No more hidden scars Step out of the wings Into the unknown Look in my eyes See how they shine bright Watching our dreams take flight As we sparkle and shine
