Phantoms - Porcupine Tree

I look at all the sad story people

Lost in the seasons passing them by Inside my head lies a life on an island

Flooded with darkness deep into the sky

But they’re only the strangers on a train

Passing through my mind again and again

But it’s lonely to stand in this heat

Deep in the woods who knows who you’ll meet

But I didn’t know the hill would be the steep

And I didn’t know the sea would be this deep

And I’m sorry I treat you this way

Deep inside the shell I crawl into

Crying alone I know I’ll get by Please stay away

I just don’t want to see you

The things that you say I know they’re all lies

But I don’t understand what the story’s about

Explain to me please how the sunlight got out

Please don’t leave me here

Dreaming alone with phantoms
