What To Fall For

Covered with black and neon lights
I look at the pale grey world
Lying beyond dusty frozen glass

Crooked fingers of reality
Hold me tight
In this mad captivity
I cannot fight
Not anymore
Should I just go?

Tell me, tell me, love
What should I fall for?

Like a star shining bright
I long for one more night
To live a dream like a child

My home left behind in those memories
I keep dear so deep
That none could ever tear them out of me

Crooked fingers of reality
Hold me tight
In this mad captivity
I cannot fight
Not anymore
Should I just go?

Tell me, tell me, love
What should I fall for?

Where is home, where is hope?
Tell me, tell me, love
What should I live for?
