If science is half the man it says it is |
|
then I can build it |
|
the machine that snaps all of time in half |
|
I can break its back |
|
I can break its back |
|
I can build a door |
|
and I can travel through |
|
they do it with telefony |
|
you don't see it much anymore, but |
|
but surely I |
|
but surely I |
|
If I could just hear your voice |
|
but I don't think I have the choice |
|
The look on your face |
|
when I first connect the line |
|
for the very first time |
|
my words come slowly to mind |
|
\"is anybody there?\" |
|
all trembling and scared |
|
replies then come |
|
fainter than air |
|
\"when the world hates a body, it just throws itself away to a place where our hands can't reach.\" |
