Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Fragments on the sea
Birds of prey above
All that lies beneath
No longer what it was, it changed
Why can't we relate?
[Verse 2]
Shadows from the deep
Your thoughts were afraid of
Secrets that we keep
The surface of our love and hate
[Chorus]
Why can't we relate?
With ourselves with what we open up
When it's too late
[Verse 3]
What we used to be
What we will become
Worlds we cannot see
Breaking up by one, by one
[Verse 4]
Slowly, we fell under a spell
One by one
Slowly, we wake up
[Verse 5]
Fragments of a scene
From a distant stage undone
Little time machine
Messages of love and hate
[Chorus]
Why can't we relate?
With ourselves with what we open up
When it's too late
