I sit and await the hand of fate
Walk the street to my own heartbeat
Love and hate are an open gate
I feel the heat beneath her feet
We move to the symphony of lust
Until ashes turn to ashes and dust to dust
I’ve been standing watching the light fading
Watching the day passing and the night returning
Standing, watching the mirrors pretending
Losing beauty, watching my life turning
Burning, watching my past erasing
Unbeing, to unsee what i’m seeing
Even as the mirrors are breaking – Nausher Nash Banaji Duo
Watching the day passing and the night returning
Standing, watching the mirrors pretending
Losing beauty, watching my life turning
Burning, watching my past erasing
Unbeing, to unsee what i’m seeing
Even as the mirrors are breaking – Nausher Nash Banaji Duo
I’m walking down my night mind
Searching for what is mine
Looking into my rearview mirror
I don’t know what I’m searching for
I have been running down passages
All I see is the empty spaces
Did I see a shadow stir
I’m still waiting for an answer
Through the sandglass and into the sea
I’m waiting for the waves to bring myself back to me

Why this, why that, and why
Raise your hands up high, on your lips feel a sigh
Open your heart to the day, burn the night for an answer
You can hear the scream the morning after
Why this, why that, and why
Look up at the sky and wait for the lie
White grows gray, gray glows black
Nothing to say, ricochet those dead years back
Why this, why that, and why
You wish you could fly, a pie in the sky
Counting your chances, a thousand to one,
Hand on your heart, eyes on the eclipsed sun
Why this, why that, and why
Raise your hands up high, on your lips feel a sigh
You go down on your knees
Open your heart to the moon and the chilling breeze
Why this, why that, and why
Look up at the sky and wait for the lie
White grows gray, gray glows black
Nothing to say, ricochet those dead years back
Why this, why that, and why
Looking up the hill at the pie in the sky
Counting your chances, a thousand to one,
An ear on your heart, eyes on an eclipsed sun
You go down on your knee
Open your heart to the moon and the bottomless sea
Look up at to the sky and sigh
Why this, why that, and why
White grows gray, gray glows black
Nothing to say, ricochet those dead years back
Look up at the sky and lie
Why this, why that, and why
Count your chances, a thousand to one,
An ear on your heart, eyes on an eclipsed sun
Look up high at the pie in the sky
Why this, why that, and why
