lyrics

They say when you can't find sleep,
It's 'cause you're awake in someone else's dreams,
How lonely it is that I sleep soundly all the time,
Forgive me if that keeps you up all night.
Forgive me.

I bite my lips and watch the colour drain from yours,
As you avert your stone gaze to the floor,
Don't be afraid to stare me straight in the eyes,
At least you'll be the last thing I see as…

I'm frozen forever,
In stone, in time, in your eyes,
And over and over and over again,
My mind wanders to you like it's going home.

I've stopped screaming and shouting to the starry skies above,
Promises shouted in this way fall back down on me like rain,
And when push comes to shove, I'll pull you closer than I ever dared before,
And even though they fall, the stars don't scare me at all.

Night’s always falling somewhere in the world,
Just as it's daybreak somewhere else,
But we could be where the night lasts for all of time,
And I'd still see you in the same light.
Forgive me.

I've stopped screaming and shouting to the starry sky above,
Promises shouted in this way fall back down on me like rain,
Like rain…
I’ve stopped screaming…
And when push comes to shove, I'll pull you closer than I ever dared before,
And even though they fall, the stars don't scare me at all.

Forgive me.

Forkhead box P2 – or FOXP2, for short – is a gene required for proper development of speech and language regions of the human brain. The existence of the FOXP2 gene suggests that our human urge to communicate with one another is innate. FOXP2 is also a two-piece rock band from South Australia that explore their fascination with communication through music, a language in of itself. ... more
