Like Mercury

I've been chasing circles round somewhere inside
Trying to put places to the faces I find
If I keep my eyes so tightly closed in the bloody black
I can see your ghost and I can bring you back

I forget more faces than I'll ever know
My memory replaces them in the overflow
But remembering your gentle voice as it calls to me
You roll through all the endless noise like mercury

I've been feeling lost inside since we're apart
But I know what's been on your mind - and what's in your heart
If I keep my eyes so tightly closed in the bloody black
I can see your ghost and I can bring you back

I've been chasing circles round somewhere inside
Trying to put places to the faces I find
Remembering your gentle voice as it calls to me
The world is flat, the stars are falling to the sea
