Still Life Lyrics - Covenant

The muffled beat of music, someone celebrates 

It's hunting season urbanised, I wish I could be there 

Warmth and laughter, the right amount of danger 

Johnnie, Johnnie Walker wisdom, as Cohen used to say 

But it's pouring down with rain 

Do you remember? 

Are you alive? 

Do you still speak of deeds undone? 

I used to be immortal, innocent as a child 

My vision was unlimited I saw rivers on the Moon 

I had important things to say, can't remember what they were 

Of all the things I did, none had been done before 

But achievements never last 

Do you recall? 

Do you dream? 

Do you still need company? 

I had a friend who knew the language, the language of the future 

I'm told he lost his mind, they say he went away 

Navigating empty streets astray among the lost 

A shadow in the corner of a stranger's eye 

But there's nothing left to learn 

Do you count the years? 

Do you breathe? 

Do you still watch the sunrise? 

My ambition took me further than I ever dreamt 

I don't even need a mirror anymore 

The penthouse pool is full of ice 

It should be flowers, winter came too soon 

But you never liked to swim 

So you feel safe? 

Are you happy? 

Do you still know my name?
