Where Do We Go From Here Lyrics

Can I write you a verse?

Just a word in the course

For the song in the water

That you can't hear

And should I disappear

Recall that I was never here

Never, in fact, anywhere

And would find you in the snow

Among the canvases of cream

Where the moon plays her terrible strings and we glow

In the shadowed cavities of our eyes

And in our bones

Oh, to feel the numbness, of the cold

Would I find you in the fire

Burning thoughts for fuel

A living sacrifice to knowledge

And her, how cruel a jest

To skirt the thrust of the mind

For the burning of the flesh

And what is it? Oh, what is it? That I love

Did I create you from an old spring of want?

A generous font of dreams

Or so it seems

Until its dry

And we are left, you and I

In the dry grass

Under summer skies

Waiting for something

That was never born

To die
