You kept the linen clean but you couldn´t keep the dirt off me Pourin´ seconds from a broken clock, leavin´ hours piled up on the floor I might feel the sun, but the sun certainly won´t feel me
My hands are icy cold, but everything they touch feels heat
Everybody knows that while I´m passing by The concrete starts to shake I´m a locust in the wind, now there´s nothing where I´ve been Just a feeling left behind
Steal the bell right off the ship so they´re never gonna hear it ring The passengers will be asleep while the pipes are ripped from under the sink I´m never gonna be the one who´s ever being lost in the sea I´d rather eat the soap that was meant to wash the dirt from me
Everybody knows while I´m passing by The forest comes awake Now I´m talking to the wind, both asking where we´ve been And what´s been left behind
I might feel the sun, but the sun certainly won´t feel me My hands are icy cold but everything they teach feels heat You kept the linen clean but you couldn´t keep the dirt off me I´d rather eat the soap that was meant to keep me clean
Everybody knows while I´m passing by The concrete starts to shake I´m a locust in the wind, there is nothing where I´ve been
Just a feeling left behind Everybody knows while I´m passing by The forest comes awake Now I´m talking to the wind, both asking where we´ve been And what´s been left behind
