Lyrics

Standing on bended knees
Home and alone in another time

I think I felt a tremor
or could it be a heartbeat,
a second hand,
a warning cry?

Did I glimpse forever
or was it just a glimmer,
lightning striking brightly
only to fade?

Standing on bended knees
Home and alone in another time

I came down the mountain
a burning in my eyes
another chance
a different life

you could call it mercy
I feel like somebody else
...at the same time
I've never been more myself

Standing on bended knees
Home and alone in another time

the moon going through its motions
it looks a lot like me
I too have a month of faces
a whole world spinning at my feet
so it goes, round and round.
