We spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there
He said I was his friend
Which came as some surprise (The two men seemingly know each other and speak of the past despite the man not being there at the time)
I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone
A long long time ago (The singer thought that this man was dead. He didn't recognise him at the beginning. Gives off the idea of two friends reuniting)
Oh no, not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world (The man had done something terrible that it is equated to selling the world)
I laughed and shook his hand
And made my way back home
I searched for form and land
For years and years I roamed (There is nowhere to go. The man doesn't have a home to go to)
I gazed a gazeless stare
At all the millions here
We must have died alone
A long, long time ago
Who knows? Not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world
Who knows? Not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world (These lyrics reveal that the two who met on the stairs are the same person or a doppelgänger)
These lyrics will influence the style of our music video as we aim to make it quite surreal and psychedelic.
