Focus Shift Lyrics by Dark Tranquillity

Fiction

2007

I think I just forgot to pick up the shells
From my recent discharge, and you took the blame
Explanations falter to ears fallen deaf
Wherever I go, I get lost
A reference to something that both of us knew
And nothing that favors the few
In the darkness electric we see
All that silence has spoken tonight

[Chorus]
I think I have lost my language
Whatever I've said, I deny
I think I have lost my way
Whatever was missing is gone
I let my focus shift

Your face is a map I fail to discover
Drowning the sounds, so lost in the order
It's the look that stayed my words, the unblinking knowledge
Interlocked and holding, no stalemate to break
Take hold of the flame that unites
In the silence that speaks to me now

[Chorus]
I think I have lost my language
Whatever I've said, I deny
I think I have lost my way
Whatever was missing is gone
I let my focus shift

[Verse 3]
I struggle to find the words that negate my meaning
I fail to comprehend what message is given

I decline the steady hand that leads to rejection
Tempted by the closure with no sense of pride
Drown the fury and swallow the fire
Drown the fury, swallow the fire

[Chorus]
I think I have lost my language
Whatever I've said, I deny
I think I have lost my way
Whatever was missing is gone
I let my focus shift
