The Mannequin Wakes - Monzano
詞：Sjur Lyseid
曲：Sjur Lyseid
A strange dream comes to an end
Where I somehow found the strength to move
See what's round the bend
The car alarms just went insane
But we have nowhere to go but back to sleep
Frozen in a frame
When we started out I was strong
And this shell wasn't filled with doubt
I stood here stout
Trying to outshine the lights I can't live without
Now they're all I can think about
Last night you were feeling blue
Something you whispered as the window shoppers
Passed without a clue
I know the war has been wounding you
Still you stand here proudly next to me
Missing a limb or two
It occurred to me just now essentially all we need
Is what they preach
Stay well dressed get your rest stay on your feet
'Cause there's lots I can't explain
I'm taking clues from the garment names
Although mostly they're inane
Pretentious and arcane
It's true the years have fueled our pondering
Still I'd like to think that soon
I'll be young enough to know everything
But I agree there's no way
You'll ever get close to me with the life I lead
Or I mean of course where life leads me
