|
Hiding out behind the birch |
|
and frozen lakes |
|
the view of things seems clearer here |
|
and my mistakes |
|
don't fill out the capacious bags |
|
that I dragged upstairs |
|
gives me time to grow a love |
|
where I had fear |
|
How long will you wait |
|
at the shady end of the slope? |
|
Am I already late |
|
with my pyramid-sized hopes? |
|
Stillboy holds his breath |
|
'til something appears |
|
all dumb, all deaf, all turned over |
|
to the wolves |
|
Stepping out of everything |
|
to nothingness |
|
'cause at every tick of the clock |
|
our time weighs |
|
a little less |
|
How long will you wait |
|
at the shady end of the slope? |
|
Am I already late |
|
with my pyramid-sized hopes? |
|
Stillboy holds his breath |
|
'til something appears |
|
all dumb, all deaf, all turned over |
|
stillboy waves his hand |
|
one time too many |
|
all dumb, all deaf, all turned over |
|
to the wolves |
|
Like the chickens need the fox |
|
and daylight longs for the dark |
|
I excuse myself to go and make my |
|
mark |
|
Stillboy holds his breath |
|
'til something appears |
|
all dumb, all deaf, all turned over |
|
stillboy waves his hand |
|
one time too many |
|
all dumb, all deaf, all turned over |
|
to the wolves |
