Outside the Gloom

Listen, let's have a word
 from a sentence that we understood
 in the context we preferred.
 I see that your own way
 might be paved with mutual stories,
 we discover day by day.
 I apologize
 if my pompous explanation
 gets you right between the eyes
 My aim is to explain
 all the words we hear entangled
 with our feelings that remain.
 Here we are outside the gloom
 Times of worlds apart
 we're still haunted by the vision
 that we carried out by heart.
 Past still rings a bell
 And the sound of it may ring
 through all the stories that we tell.
 Don't say this, don't say that
 While we read each other's minds
 on what we hide during the chat.
 Meet my eyes, face to face.
 Surprised we hardly said a word,
 we understand in any case.
 Here we are outside the gloom
 Walk the streets, out in town
 We can be reached for every second
 Everywhere around
 Some may speak, but never hear.
 Prefer to talk with modern means
 beyond the end of near.
 Seeing 'em so close, they're far away.
 Thought you felt good in their presence
 but you went astray.
 Getting in touch with the world outside,
 is just a dial away.
 Each in our own cocoon in a world's so wide.
 Here we are outside the gloom
 All around, the silence screams.
 Translating my imagination,
 is not as easy as it seems.
 Let's meet up, on waves ahead.
 Just like the ones we used to float on,
 during simple things we said.
 I hear your words on higher ground
 and they gain a deeper meaning
 by the way they sound.
 For the dream we both pursued
 made us build a future
 since the past is now reviewed.
 Here we are outside the gloom
 With all those memories
 I considered it made sense
 To talk to you
 The things I'm living for,
 my dreams, my hopes, my hidden fears.
 I confide it all to you.
 Whenever the past has written the wrong lines,
 it makes you tell the things you don't want to say.
 Living in silence is an option,
 depending on the price you're willing to pay.
 Using a sign, playing a mime,
 you're trying,
 to make them understand it without avail.
 Whatever you think, whatever you dream,
 is distance!
 Until you find a way to tell your tale.
 With all those memories
 I considered it made sense
 To talk to you
 The things I'm living for,
 my dreams, my hopes, my hidden fears.
 I confide it all to you.
 Sense of security
 When we both can share the past
 To talk about
 Exchanging energies
 We'll find the driving force in us,
 , You and I
