The Other Shore

[Verse 1] I watch the people move like tides They know the steps, they know the signs I stand beside the open door And feel the warmth but nothing more [Verse 2] They speak a language I have heard But something's lost in every word The light falls different where I stand A foreign sun, a foreign land [Chorus] I was not made for this The wires don't align I move through rooms like mist And leave no mark behind [Verse 3] The clocks all run at someone's pace I've memorized the right grimace I know the lines, I know my cue And still I'm somewhere else than you [Bridge] [Instrumental — bass pulse, synth drone, slow drum machine] [Verse 4] Perhaps another world exists Where I fit neatly in the list But here I walk the narrow seam Between the waking and the dream [Outro] I was not made for this I was not made for this I was not made
