lyrics

It Can Only Mean One Thing
(J.P. Mercier/ M.Mercier)

Heavy bed sheets,
Walking shadow play,
Parading blank stares,
So is it my heartrate?
Will you have to operate?
Spat out in a blast,
In a dry but forgiving quick flare
Sleep is everything
We'll just give you something

— We have a nice room with a view…
I should listen to wisdom
— In there we can take care of you…
But my heart is still numb
— Yes, but win a few, loose a few…
I feel empty as they come
— We tried everything get through…
Get through to you

Out of that oddly moving mouth
All skin and creaky bones
Comes a mantra
That should beat your karma

— We have a nice room with a view…
I should listen to wisdom
— In there we can take care of you…
But my heart is still numb
— Yes, but win a few, loose a few…
I feel empty as they come
— We tried everything get through…
But if there's really nothing you can do

This can only mean one thing,
It can only mean one thing,
Nothing that I loved has survived,
It's already gone
I mean everything and everyone,
This can only mean one thing,
It can only mean one thing,
Nothing that I've done will survive
Not even one
Gone will be every note of every song

Stop gazing down
You walking blank page syndromes
Don't let it in there
Cut or rip it out of there

— We have a nice room with a view…
I should listen to wisdom
— In there we can take care of you…
But my heart is still numb
— Yes, but win a few, loose a few…
I feel empty as they come
— We tried everything get through…

— We have a nice room with a view…
But there’s nothing there to see
— In there we can take care of you…
Please don’t bring me to my knees
— Yes, but win a few, loose a few…
This whole logic is failing me
— We tried everything get through…
But if there's really nothing you can do

This can only mean one thing,
It can only mean one thing,
Nothing that I loved has survived,
It's already gone
I mean everything and everyone,
This can only mean one thing,
It can only mean one thing,
Nothing that I've done will survive
Not even one
Gone will be every note of every song
