So we drank deep of the sun How it dripped like nectar on our goblet tongues And trickled down our icy throats To warm us in the hollow of our bones Keep me blind enough to see Keep me dumb so I can speak And I heard you after dark As you hummed the muffled chorus of your heart And I heard your sleeping song As you etched some ancient script into the lawn Keep me blind enough to see Keep me dumb so I can speak Do you hear me when I call? Do you know yourself at all? You're the hummingbird I caught The fledgling thing I'll keep till it flies off And when your daisy dreams are spent You'll wake with clouds of pollen on your breath How the waking life deceives Hides the truth in all our dreams Do you hear me when I call? Do you know yourself at all? Domesticated, we fill our eyes with halogen And watch projectors spit out copied images Fleeting shadows flit on cave walls of the mind Our flickering silhouetted cinematic lives We're stowaways inside our heads We're sleeping animals We blink, we speak, we know our names But we can't explain ourselves We're runaways on broken legs Crippled automatons We brace our bones, we splint our steps But we're aimless all along
