|
The street was rushing beneath, |
|
This is the fastest way I know. |
|
Where all the cars move backwards, |
|
And giant alley trees will grow again. |
|
I cut across the city's backyards, |
|
Counting cracks along the concrete, |
|
A burst open spider web, |
|
And every blade of grass will make me sneer. |
|
When all the fields dried up, |
|
Tens of comfortable years ago. |
|
I made this journey once before. |
|
And the city fed me long enough. |
|
To put a weight around the middle. |
|
This is apparent affluence. |
|
Left in a pack when I was little, |
|
Then I got pulled apart from closest friends. |
|
There was a door on my horizon, |
|
And silver sparkling rays were pouring in. |
|
So I sneaked away on soft hands. |
|
Another world in the making. |
|
(Ohhh, I know I fall) |
|
(Ohhh, I know I fell) |
|
(Oh, I know I'm fallen) |
