Eyeless In Gaza - One by One

40Copied!

As close as this
I found you crowd me
Just as I do
You

We are surrounded
One by one we fall

We fall to a pattern
That we would really
Much rather not fashion

You and me

Who are you?

You are secret
And I
The same

Which is how I feel it ought to be
In all honesty
We can never touch completely
You and me

One by one
We realise
We are chasing a face in disguise
You and me
One by one
