Dewese-James
Lately, every time that I'm waking up
I re-enact the anniversary of some old wound
So cheer up, on the sidewalk in a daze
Here's an apple for your afternoon.
Don't you know there's an elegant man
Who says hello and kisses you gently on the hand?
All I know is we all crawl in the dark.
Tell me, for what do we secretly await?
Will the airports take me from these endless halls?
And if I seem hopelessly dismayed
It's the fear that from this fragile perch we'll fall.
Don't you know there's an incandescent man
Who speaks hello and sings haiku for ancient stamps?
All I know is we all crawl in the dark, in the dark.
Oh, there's a mountain
Oh, there's a tree
And there's a chord change
From you back to me
I'm waiting patiently
And I'm counting three.
Don't you know there's an incidental man
Who says hello and sells you homeopathic pants?
All I know is we all crawl in the dark, in the dark, in the dark, in the dark.
