On faces so tired, facing each other. 
Each day they grow farther and farther away from each other.

They seem to say nothing, they seem to go nowhere, 
They seem to go farther, they seem to go nowhere, 
They seem to go farther, they seem to go nowhere, 
They seem to go farther, and farther and farther 
And farther and farther and farther and farther 
And farther and farther and farther and farther 
And farther away from each other.
