Paroles de Caledonia

I wasn't prepared to face the final hues To watch the color fade and let go of my youth Walls were built to hide it all from view Still standing now, still as resolute I could hardly muster a goodbye Pleading for numbness to arrive Though it meant I'd never fully heal I lost the will to let myself feel Caledonia I wasn't aware That fate would plunge the knife I'd watched the color fade out from joys of life Walls of guilt can hide it all from view I try to tear them down Still they are renewed I can hardly muster a goodbye And I'm pleading for numbness to survive Every day when clarity reveals I've lost the will to let myself heal Caledonia From the depths of your being One last moment awake From the depths of my being I've never ceased to escape From Caledonia (from Caledonia) Caledonia (Caledonia)
