Focus Shift - Dark Tranquillity

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

Nothing that favors the few

In the darkness electric we see

That silence has spoken tonight

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

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

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

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

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
