Army Of Lost Soldiers

A frozen moment in Time and silence,
In which your eyes went completely
Throughout my walls and my soul
Words seem to form but never reach my voice,
Thoughts collide but never follow a straight line
Even reality seemed to have lost its glance
And I lost my defence not longer than a second

Your army of lost soldiers conquers every inch
And moves closer over my lost land
They seem to be safe here, straying in vain
To keep either one of us away from pain

A frozen kiss in both our lungs and minds,
In which my mind went completely
Throughout your silent moving whispers
Reasons seem to form but never reach closer,
The miles on my shoes don’t make a difference
Even the memories of forlorn landscapes seem lost
And you lost your defence not longer than a second

My army of lost soldiers conquers every inch
And moves closer over your lost sense
They seem to be safe there, straying in vain
To keep either one of us away from pain

A frozen war in both our hearts,
Losing the cold feeling over Time
But my embrace will never be the same again
The warmth does move closer over our skins
And for once we’re both not letting the pain
Keeping the stories we’ve told so often
And we both lost our defence not longer than a second

An army of lost soldiers conquers every inch
And moves closer over our broken land
They seem to be safe there, straying in vain
To keep either one of us away from pain
But they kept us both safe
