lyrics

What's wrong
I see it in your face
I've known you far too long
You've slipped once again
Maybe
You're having hallucinations
Nightmares, perhaps
Of that normal life

Finally
Finally peace for me
I tried all my life
For this serenity
You were there
Or was I deceived
I fell in love with a dream
Not reality
I could not tell you
My real name
It was lost in a haze
With all those other days

Well now
You need an operation
Some drugs, some blades, some knives
To stitch you up just right
What would you do
Without the connection
We'll hook you back up to the Wire
And feed you once again

Fantasy
This is just fantasy
But perfection in one side
Is reality
You were there
My guiding light
Leading me through this maze
Of monotony
And I could not tell you
Just what was wrong
The words were lost in a shell
Of my former self

And I could not tell you
The reason why I'm here
It's been totally erased
With the rest of me
And there is no beginning
Or no end to me
I could just break free
If you come to me
