Story behind the song
We had an idea based around the chords Hm, F#m, Em and wanted the tune to float around with no brakes or ecxessive parts confusing the listener. Now the only thing missing was good refrain. After several days of struggling in Doghouse Studios we ended up with this DD-flavoured refrain.
Lyrics
So do you know
How we came to act in
This ordinary show
You played a role
With a wicked smile
and emptiness in your soul
When chances are few
In your mystery
What are we still to you?
When there's no turning back
And there's no incertainty
Let's turn away
There's no use denying
We lost credibility
You and I
A storm in a pond or a fish in the river dry
Truth is a word we crucified
'though it never rose again
So now where alone
Again and again and again and again
When everything is lost I know
That this was meant to be
We found the places where it hurts
So please set us free
When everything is lost don't wait
Don't hesitate just leave
We found the places where it hurts
So please set us free
When everything is lost I know
When there's no turning point
Still we moved on
with unuttered words
we fooled ourselves along
the way that brought us here where solitude prevails
So how do you plead
Innocent or guilty as well as I
In this scam
We loose again, again, once again
