about

With a profound sense of grief at being denied by the one thing he idolized, The Scavenger wanders aimlessly, but he won’t surrender. He imagines himself as one who was brought into this world under normal circumstances and wonders if it could've been different. They meet again, but he can’t communicate everything he wants to say, so she runs off again.

lyrics

I walk alone forever waiting
To find the one who has escaped me
Though I've gone through every trial and tribulation
I'll keep on searching for the one who set me free

Don't peek into the looking glass
That is not me
I'm not what you can see

This time I hope that you will pass and we'll lock eyes
I could have sworn I saw you in another life
Our paths will cross and I'll be different you'll see
Why do you wanna live for me

This being that I become at inconvenient times
I struggle sometimes to find some simple peace of mind
Is there anyone who might be free from the gripping pain of life
So spare me your apathy and bring me sweet divine

Come with me and we'll be
Free from all the death that life brings
Show me greed, show me silent suffering and
All that blood you bleed

I need someone near me
I need you to hear me through the walls
Our deaths are identical but our lives are never the same
I won't let go

Stay with me darling
I need somebody dear you see
Can you send me off to sleep?
But why are you crying
I thought that you would send me first
but now I know your selfishness
and I, oh I
I have to to turn the clock and stop
you from falling asleep without me

I need someone near me
I need you to hear me through the walls
Our deaths are identical but our lives are never the same
why did you go without me
I need someone near me
I need you to hear me through the walls
Our deaths are identical but our lives are never the same
I won't let go
