On The Faultline (Closure To An Animal)
I am a manYou fell down from that apple treeThe other day with meAnd nowYou ask me to apologise for slowlyCrawling up from the sea?
We never seem to findThe time to sit by the fireUnder the crescent moon,Lead a meaningful life
You ever wonder, loveIf you could one day board a flying contraptionAnd see the world?Without me?Leave me behind to solve all the puzzles you haveDrawn on these walls over time
What if I could somehow storeGood memories in cloudsAnd fly to touch the moonAnd your hand at the same time
Here I stand and look at my lifeBarren, cold and incompleteMirror smiles at me with teary disdainPointing out the faults in me
Memories of holidays with youWill rain on me from time to timeWe have the road within ourselvesTo countless paradisesWhen there is a tunnel there’s a light,The thought is causing tremorsOn the faultline between you and I
The clouds always trail the sunAnd floods put out the firesTo flush away the signs ofThe loves of our lives
Here I stand and look at my lifeBarren, cold and incompleteMirror smiles at me with a teary disdainPointing out all faults in me
Memories of holidays with youWill rain on me from time to timeWe are the road, the paradise,The broken wheel of fortuneWhen there is a tunnel there’s a light,The thought is causing tremorsOn the fault line between you and I
When I’m without youAm I the only human here?Am I the only human here?Am I the only human here?Am I the only human here?Am I the only human here?Am I the only human here?Dancing on this fault line…
