I'm home again, I won the war, and now I am behind
|
your door. I tried so hard to obey the law, see the
|
meaning of it all. Remember me? Before the war.
|
I'm the man who lived next door. Long ago...
|
|
As you can see, when you look at me, I'm pieces of
|
what I used to be. It's easier if you don't see me
|
standing on my own two feet. I'm taller when I sit
|
here still, you ask are all my dreams fulfilled.
|
They made me a heart of steal, the kind them bullets
|
cannot see
|
|
Nothing's what it seems to be,
|
I'm a replica, I'm a replica
|
Empty shell inside of me
|
I'm not myself, I'm a replica of me...
|
|
The light is green, my slate is clean, new life to fill
|
the hole in me. I had no name, last December, Christmas
|
Eve I can't remember. I was in a constant pain, I saw
|
your shadow in a rain. I painted all your pigeons red,
|
I wish I had stayed home instead.
|
|
Nothing's what it seems to be,
|
I'm a replica, I'm a replica
|
Empty shell inside of me
|
I'm not myself, I'm a replica of me...
|
|
Are you gonna leave me now, when it is all over
|
Are you gonna leave me, is my world now over...
|
|
Raising from the place I've been, and trying to keep
|
my home base clean. Now I'm here and won't go back believe.
|
|
I fall asleep and dream a dream, I'm floating in a
|
silent dream. No-one placing blame on me
|
But nothing's what it seems to be, yeah.
|
|
Nothing's what it seems to be,
|
I'm a replica, I'm a replica
|
Empty shell inside of me
|
I'm not myself, I'm a replica of me...
