Two Islands
The front door has never looked more attractive
Than it does right now, and it is somehow
Due to the fact you're going at this once more
And I've heard this before
I've heard this before
And as my escape plan slowly formulates
You say something new, something you never do
You no longer know me
No, we've never met
And further, you feel it has no real consequence
Severed by naivety
It confounds you and it condemns me
I would stop to say goodnight, but
Do strangers ever say goodbye?
As I drive on the gateway
With no real destination
The odor of our discourse
Repels me with remorse
Of course I know better
Than to settle this right now
If we are two islands
We'll never meet anyhow
Severed by naivety
It confounds you and it condemns me
I would stop to say goodnight, but
Do strangers ever say goodbye?
I'm a stranger to you, a stranger to you
Is this what real strangers do, or
Do they know better?
Can we put this aside? Please put this aside
You can't just tear down your pride
It's "death" or it's "life"
Severed by naivety
It confounds you and it condemns me
I would stop to say goodnight, but
Do strangers ever say goodbye?
No I don't want to say goodbye
I don't want to say goodbye
Than it does right now, and it is somehow
Due to the fact you're going at this once more
And I've heard this before
I've heard this before
And as my escape plan slowly formulates
You say something new, something you never do
You no longer know me
No, we've never met
And further, you feel it has no real consequence
Severed by naivety
It confounds you and it condemns me
I would stop to say goodnight, but
Do strangers ever say goodbye?
As I drive on the gateway
With no real destination
The odor of our discourse
Repels me with remorse
Of course I know better
Than to settle this right now
If we are two islands
We'll never meet anyhow
Severed by naivety
It confounds you and it condemns me
I would stop to say goodnight, but
Do strangers ever say goodbye?
I'm a stranger to you, a stranger to you
Is this what real strangers do, or
Do they know better?
Can we put this aside? Please put this aside
You can't just tear down your pride
It's "death" or it's "life"
Severed by naivety
It confounds you and it condemns me
I would stop to say goodnight, but
Do strangers ever say goodbye?
No I don't want to say goodbye
I don't want to say goodbye
