lyrics

Water is flowing over me

It doesn’t stop falling

It’s all I can see

Our goal seems so far

and yet just ahead

There’s no one out here I fear

That would mind if I’d die

That’d feel with me if I’d cry

Chorus

It’s a mystery

Why I’m here and you there

It’s not fair

What a mystery

That I’m here and you there

It’s not fair

How long it will take us, no one knows

All they keep saying is

“We’re already close”

My feet just keep moving

Although they feel numb

Cold air that pumps through my lungs

Burns like hot iron on my skin

I wonder “Will I pay or will I win?”

It’s a mystery

Why I’m here and you there

It’s not fair

What a mystery

That I’m here and you there

It’s not fair

I hear them whisper

“Just keep walking,

Just keep walking,

Never stopping"
