Lyrics

Those words are all remainders

Echoes growing in the heart of twilight

They lay back laughing at naivety's star

Awaken all those whispers

In the dusty shadow of a sick favour

I wouldn't say that you were ruthless or right

I couldn't see from so far

Was I chasing after rainbows

One thing for sure you never answered when I called

And I wiped away the water from my face

To look through the eyes of a stranger

For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd

Treading in my shelter for danger

I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down

In the eyes of a stranger

And tell the real from reflections

When all these faces look the same to me

In every city such a desolate dream

Some days are strange to number

Some say the seventh sounds a little bit stranger

A year of Sundays seems to have drifted right by

I could have sworn in one evening

I'm not seized in desperation

No steel reproaches on the table from before

But I still can feel those splinters of ice

I look through the eyes of a stranger

For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd

Treading in my shelter for danger

I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down

In the eyes of a stranger

I must be chasing after rainbows

One thing for sure you never answer when I call

And I wipe away the water from my face

To look through the eyes of a stranger

For rumours in my wake of such a lonely crowd

Treading in my shelter for danger

I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down

Walking away like a stranger

From rumours in my wake of such a lonely crowd

Treading in my shelter for danger

I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down

In the eyes of a stranger

In the eyes of a stranger
