Veneer

Veneer- September 12, 2005

I've slipped
Fallen to the ground
In a cold and broken
Heap

Your touch
just once was enough
This does not happen
To me

Veneer
What do you see?
Is it real?
Are you sure?
Veneer
Am I still here?
I'm not sure I know
Anymore

I'm sorry
I've faltered
You will not see it
Again

I'll stay
Hidden from sight
I will wait until I can
Stand

Veneer
What do you see?
Is it real?
Are you sure?
Veneer
Am I still here?
I'm not sure I know
Anymore

Don't worry
I'll recover
From this melancolic flight
And even if I'm wrong
I'll be damned if you ever know
that you were right

And then maybe you'll forget...
And then maybe we can move on...
Like it never really happened at all...

Veneer
What do you see?
Is it real?
Are you sure?
Veneer
Am I still here?
I'm not sure I know
Anymore
