One sound, one single sound

One kiss, one single kiss

 A face outside the window pane

 However did it come to this?

 A man who ran, a child who cried

 A girl who heard, a voice that lied

 The sun that burned a fiery red

 The vision of an empty bed

 The use of force, he was so tough

 She'll soon submit, she's had enough

 The march of fate, the broken will

 Someone is lying very still

He has laughed and he has cried

He has fought and he has died

 He's just the same as all the rest

 He's not the worst, he's not the best

 And still this ceaseless murmuring

 The babbling that I brook

 The seas of faces, eyes upraised

 The empty screen, the vacant look

 A man in black on a snow white horse,

 A pointless life has run its course,

 The red rimmed eyes, the tears still run

 As he fades into the setting sun
