Rolling and falling, I'm choking and callingI'm not sure when the dreams started. The dreams where I had to go somewhere, had a journey to start. Yet, try as I might, I couldn't get started.
Name after name after name
Naked and bleeding, the streetlights rain by meI'd somehow misplace my luggage, or my ticket. Or I just couldn't get packed to go. Maybe I couldn't find the bus, or the bus station. Maybe I had to shower and get ready to leave, but I couldn't turn the shower on.
Hurting my eyes with their glare
Helplessly braking, exchanging my facesI never quite knew what the destination was, or even why I had to go. All I knew was that I had to leave, but I could never get started.
Destined, we had to collide
Caught on the outside, I'm crumbling and crawlingI'm missing my train, missing my plane. I have to leave. But somehow, I can't get started.
Watching the day drag away
Spiralling deeper, I can't feel my fingers
Grip round my throat as I dream
