A disconcerting way to wake: to find everything in place
|
the world goes on without my faith in anything
|
to have to drag myself from bed, pull a sweater over my head
|
(somehow find a way to brave the sun again).
|
And all of this just as I was beginning to have the most amazing dream.
|
They rolled the stones away
|
and let everyone come right in and say hello to me.
|
They picked me up and held me there
|
and smiled at my crumpled wings.
|
And all of this just as I was beginning to have the most amazing dream.
|
And when you go to sleep at night, don't you ever feel the weight
|
of all the things that make you happy;
|
that float around you, pull you down?
|
And don't you ever want to stand up on the waves and run?
|
