Babel

I will open the door because I can't dream
I hold onto hope of being close to the end
On earth my fragility is reflected

Looking at your face, fear will return
I will sink into your abyssal silence
I won't be able to know the reason for the sigh

I search in your gaze
that envelops the silence
the path that will let me in
to what you are feeling

And as I search for you
I lose hope
When I think I'm going to touch you
I move further away from you

I look into your eyes and can't find myself
I've lost the faith that helped me believe
Only the foolish, old longing keeps me here

Sea of dreams where I feel shipwrecked
Awakening among waves and imagining
that I know the ghost that dwells in your skin

I search...

And as I search for you
I lose hope
When I think I'm going to touch you
I move further away from you
Words lose their truth
and now I am further away
