Last Scene from Wisdom & Failure by no:carrier

when the sun is shining in winter times onto the snow covered hills that I see looking out of my window, I feel a certain chill

when I walk down the deserted streets
with no one there but my memories
coming to the house where it all began

when I look through the blinded windows
though I can’t see a lot, I know it still shows
the last scene of a play we shouldn’t have staged

if I were you I wouldn’t be so eager
to tell them things they already know
if I were you I’d go and try to live as I preach so that it shows

if I were you I wouldn’t go on talking
about the things I barely understand
if I were you I’d get some help to find out who I really am

I think of you and all the others
who lived through all the glory of ours
but in the end we couldn’t get what we wanted from it

when I think back to these exciting times
I’m still sure we could have gotten it right
but maybe it was just a play we shouldn’t have staged

if I were you I wouldn’t be so eager
to tell them things they already know
if I were you I’d go and try to live as I preach so that it shows

if I were you I wouldn’t go on talking
about the things I barely understand
if I were you I’d get some help to find out who I really am
