Another Life Lyrics

Islands of granite pock the earth

Outside of the city where the air's an oppressive soup

With wind and the dust

Where derelict car frames give to rust

I am alone

The halcyon clouds loiter and cling

To wildfire muted blue that the heavens hang in

It's there your spirits gone

If I can keep my optimism long

But it's getting old

Your pain was the type that was infinite

The mere chance of a cure

Got you more high than anything

But it has become tired

When every day is trial by fire

It consumes

When we leave here

I'm pretty sure we're just gone

But I'll be here waiting

For your subtle signal from beyond

The one that may not arrive

But I hope I will meet you in another

Another life

So reincarnate and begin again

We'll reincarnate this time and be born better men

I'll wait for your incarnation

Yes your transfixed coronation

For I will wait

Billions of ghosts wander unnoticed

Billions of ghosts lived decades hopeful and devoted

They spent years in Sunday clothes

To be reassured they won't die alone

But they died alone

Everywhere I go I see their ghost

Everywhere I go I see your ghost
