Statues

When you look at this stony face, tell me what do you see?
Do you still see me than you see this parasite?
When you look at these dead eyes, dried up and colorless
The eyes of the motherless enjoying no company

In the gallery of my mind
Lost in the sands of time
The shadows and sounds that remind
The statues of the past go deep tonight

When you look at this old soul, is he trapped in the teeth of his tears?
Too far gone to hear his heart still beating
When you dream about your lovers laugh, is hе able to smile?
It might take him a whilе, I'm sorry if he doesn't like it too much

In the gallery of my mind
Lost in the sands of time
The shadows and sounds that remind
The statues of the past go deep tonight

When you love these broken bones, can you feel them mend?
Don't care to pretend, but I slept with an angel
When you kiss these hard-layer lips
The only time they're warm
Since the day I was born, I felt the chill of love

In the gallery of my mind
Lost in the sands of time
The shadows and sounds that remind

The statues of the past go deep tonight
The statues of the past go deep tonight
The statues of the past go deep tonight
The statues of the past go deep tonight
