I am a man
You fell down from that apple tree
The other day with me
And now
You ask me to apologize for slowly
Crawling up from the sea?
We never seem to find
The time to sit by the fire
Under the crescent moon
Lead a meaningful life
You ever wonder, love
If you could one day board a flying contraption
And see the world?
Without me?
Leave me behind to solve all the puzzles you have
Drawn on these walls over time
What if I could somehow store
Good memories in clouds
And fly to touch the moon
And your hand at the same time
Here I stand and look at my life
Barren, cold and incomplete
A mirror smiles at me with teary disdain
Pointing out the faults in me
Memories of holidays with you
Will rain on me from time to time
We have the road within ourselves
To countless paradises
When there is a tunnel there’s a light
The thought is causing tremors
On the fault line between you and I
The clouds always trail the sun
And floods put out the fires
To flush away the signs of
The loves of our lives
Here I stand and look at my life
Barren, cold and incomplete
Mirror smiles at me with a teary disdain
Pointing out all faults in me
Memories of holidays with you
Will rain on me from time to time
We are the road, the paradise
The broken wheel of fortune
When there’s a tunnel there’s a light
The thought is causing tremors
On the fault line between you and I
When I’m without you
Am I the only human here?
Dancing on this fault line
