Time and space deliver us
|
From all that we could be
|
Leave rabbits sleeping in their hats for all eternity
|
|
Sometimes I catch a flicker
|
And I think you see it too
|
Sometimes I see a dead man with his dying left to do
|
|
Slowly this unravels to a quiet compromise
|
Prayers sent out like dirty jokes
|
Come back as alibis
|
And I¡¯m cold and I¡¯m alone
|
But it feels good to be alive
|
Under the water
|
|
Something grows untended
|
In a corner of my heart
|
And it feels like a beginning but I don¡¯t know where to start
|
|
Let fingers be a tribute
|
The moment a denial
|
As lips become the colour of the bluest summer skies
|
|
So let this man be an island
|
And get swallowed by the waves
|
Cause it¡¯s harder to be lost
|
When it¡¯s so easy to be saved
|
Oh time and space deliver us
|
From promises we¡¯ve made
|
Under the water
|
