Temporary

Shadows dance on the walls
In a shimmering light
Faded leaves slowly fall
Leaving nothing behind
Leaden clouds have no end
Far above and beyond
Yet we try to pretend
Nothing seems to be wrong

I see your faces
And I hear your laughter
And I feel a bittersweet taste on my lips
We don't seem to care
What's coming after
But short is the moment
The moment left to live

In one step from the edge
Walking eyes firmly shut
With no chance to escape
Anywhere to be found
And the clouds turn to red
Far above and beyond

Now it's too late
For us to wait
Pretending like
Like there's nothing wrong

I see your faces
And I hear your laughter
And I feel a bittersweet taste on my lips
We don't seem to care
What's coming after
But short is the moment
The moment left to live

With music loud and all lights on
We live and care for nothing till it's gone
But now it's time for us to see
We're all temporary

I see your faces
And I hear your laughter
And I feel a bittersweet taste on my lips
We don't seem to care
What's coming after
But short is the moment
The moment left to live
