about

from a diary i kept while living in nusle, prague.

lyrics

nobody knows

the screens light up the room behind the louvered blinds
and the couple in the convertible kiss three times and part
she’s like a jigsaw standing there on the pavement
the pieces don’t fit and she’s wondering if they ever will

and it’s been so long
and it’s been so long
and nobody knows but you

a bare and functional room in the early hours
button by button you take off your blouse in the mirror of your eyes
slowly turning your head you see that automobile
where you kiss three times and it’s always sweet that bitter pill

and it’s been so long
and it’s been so long
and nobody knows

the river is like a mirror
in the water the buildings shiver
i carry you like an echo
watching in the window

i wake up with the dawn the river in my eyes
empty pockets the dust in my skin just a blur in the sun
she turns to the window does she see me there
and i can’t turn away cause nothing can be like it was before

and it’s been so long
and it’s been so long
and nobody knows
