Clutching to driftwood
How could I forget that I'm a fish?
Clutching to driftwood
Proximity reduced me to this
How sad it is to know
That night and day work to balance out
At night my pillow gives me wings
To lift my broken body from the ground
Only now do I realize why you wore a weary smile
When I spoke of a promised tomorrow
...talking at a distance, closest when resisted...
...talking at a distance, closest when resisted...
But now I know
When you love something
Just hold it down
And it will destroy you
Why, why, why
I have never tried
No direction...
