Touchstones - Subsignal

Another mile on this old road another hour, another breath

The thousand deaths we die in life, rolling the boulder up the hill

The shifting sands of destiny, covering what we’d hoped to be

Out there must be something, out there must be someone

We’ll attain the summit of our longing someday

Something must be out there, someone must be out there

But we don’t believe in fairytales anymore

We find ourselves inside a room, at either end an unseen door

Between both doors a surging space

Inside this space we shiver with the void

Out there must be something, out there must be someone

We will reach the summit with our boulder someday

Something must be out there, someone must be out there

But we don’t believe in ourselves anymore

We found nothing out there, no we found nothing out there

And we watched our boulder rolling back down again

We left nothing out there, we left nothing out there

Just a yellowed blueprint of what we longed to be

Out there must be something, out there must be someone

We’ll attain the summit of our longing someday

Something must be out there, someone must be out there

But we don’t believe in ourselves anymore

Old heart of mine, cold heart of mine

How long has it been since we have seen the sun?

We climbed a hill with toilsome steps, on our weary shoulders a weight

As the world got colder we found ourselves paralyzed and freezing from our fears

In every waking hour we hoped to find, in any kind of golden light

A sense of change

And so many words, so many faces, swept away in hurricanes from our sight

Our hands are writing unknowable signs into immortal sands it’s only us, only us

One must imagine, imagine this man, one must imagine this man

Happy…
