Chisel it away

Shake the stone from its sleep

Sweep it away

Till you find what lays down deep

Show me a sign

Of who you need to be

’Cause the first five seconds

Are the only seconds that I need

After all this time were our efforts all in vain

When the first five seconds and the last feel exactly the same

I watched you in amazement

Sitting alone in the dark

And now I find you

Further away from your spark

After all this time, etc

Strike the skin

Till our blood flows again

It’s never changed

It’s still the same

Press the key

Until we agree

It’s never changed

It’s still the same

This unsteady world

Keeps shaking the ground under our feet

The first five seconds

Are the only seconds that you need

After all this time, etc
