lyrics

You have seen what the others sell.
Held it with quivering gaze.
You then dug up with trembling hand
The last piece of silver you had.
Did you believe that this is what
You needed to plug the hole?
Did you think this would patch this seam
Through which the sand then fell.

So much sullied and solid this thing.
Let me live in the margin again.

You have slipped through these sleeping homes
Where the light deepens the shade,
You then slid through the urban grass
Where the moon washes the broken glass.

This hand hangs heavy
With things not done.

So much sullied and solid this thing.
Let me live in the margin again.

I could shake this numb machine
But I grow indifferent
With every breath I take.
I could extend this phantom limb
But that would involve the
Never-unfurling will.
Maybe I wouldn’t have to change
But I am indifferent
To every breath I take.
I could reach out this phantom limb
But that would involve the
always-unbending will.
