Second Lives

I hear the dead
So why can’t I hear you now

Waiting for a brand new day
When the fear has gone away
Between two dreams

There’s a doorway to the past
Life is too beautiful to last
And it’s tearing at the seems

Will this longing for your touch solidify
Or does love disappear when you die

Speak the language of the soul
I understand my role
It’s a lifetime of knowing what’s real
Take my hand now if you can
No one else can understand
What it’s like when you can see
But cannot feel

Burning eyes glowing bright
I’d give the world to you
‘Til the end of our days

Voices echo through the night
Searching for someone
To guide them on their way

Are we destined to wander
Through our second lives
Or does it even matter in the end
Tell me why

Speak the language of the soul
I understand my role
It’s a lifetime of knowing what’s real
Take my hand now if you can
No one else can understand
What it’s like when you can see
But cannot feel

I hear the dead
So speak to me now

Will this longing for your touch solidify
Or does love disappear when you die

Speak the language of the soul
I understand my role
It’s a lifetime of knowing what’s real
Take my hand now if you can
No one else can understand
What it’s like when you can see
But cannot feel
I see but cannot feel
