Lyrics

(Hammill, part ii : vanblow)

I never thought it could come to this
As you sit there crying
Hanging on with your fingertips
To something that's already dead
Now we're into a game
And it's all a bit strange

Once on a time we were sincere;
Now, we're acting charades
Hiding behind cracked images
From other people's stages;
Now, we're into a game
And it's all a bit strange
But familiar, too..
The rules never change; I know it, but do you?

I've seen it all before
And this play no longer moves me
But the closing of a door
Is never easy
