More Than Bodies

from Memory (2011) by Roderick

/

lyrics

And every time I see the moon reflecting on oceans stretched,
This cold seems never-ending.
Tell me why you had to go explore that different place,
There's a hole in our hearts left from the space where you were.

And I know that you're here in the sounds we were meant to hear.

All around me teardrops drum on the ground,
I tried to speak, my mouth wasn't making a sound.
All the people I love just gathered around in your memory.
With every day that you're gone, the ones you left must go on,
But there's a void that can't be undone.
So all the people that love you gather around in your memory.

The words I want just come and go.
Now I'm on my own and I'm scared that death will show,
That I'm only here to be alone.

I take a look at the stars,
They're yours, they're mine, they're ours.
Every face on the street seems to stare at me for something,
There's always something.
If we're just hollow shells, I'll spend my time in hell,
But I'm convinced we're more than bodies.
We're more than just bodies.
