"Absence in love is like water upon fire;
a little quickens, but much extinguishes it."
— Hannah More
lyrics
Like castles made of sand,
Like shapes in clouds
Like water upon fire
Pouring down
Like breaking an old pact
Like falling out
Like falling in ----
...a trap that you've made sleepwalking
You're just tricking yourself
Be aware, my friend,
It may scare, but it's not the intent
People change like colors bleed
As I sense a shade of you in me
solo: Hisham
Like getting along well
Like doing fine
Then suddenly breaking
(Suddenly breaking)
Suddenly breaking — just in time
Like meanings we give to words
Misread, misheard
Like failing to see the point in the song
But still sing along
Be aware, my friend,
it may scare, ain't that the sole intent?
People change like colors bleed
As I sense
a shade
of you
in me
