Lyrics

[00:44.91] What's the immaterial substance
[00:49.44] that envelopes two,
[00:55.75] that one perceives as hunger
[01:00.49] and the other as food.
[01:06.79] I wake in tangled covers,
[01:11.46] to a sash of snow,
[01:17.79] you dream in a cartoon garden,
[01:22.41] I could never know.
[01:51.36] Innocent imitation,
[01:55.63] of how it could be,
[02:01.91] if when the music ended,
[02:06.91] you did not retreat.
[02:13.12] In my imagination,
[02:17.50] you are cast in gold,
[02:23.72] your image a compensation for me to hold.
[03:19.22] Parallel lines, move so fast,
[03:30.17] toward the same point,
[03:35.72] infinity is as near as it is far.
[03:41.30] Parallel lines, move so fast,
[03:52.23] toward the same point,
[03:58.82] infinity is as near as it is far.
