lyrics

Take the flight of the stairs to the street
And all I see are the ways in which
You could hurt me again
Hear the sirens, feel the sounds
And all I think of are the ways in which everything is vulnerable
To the pressure cracks in pavement
To the spider-web fractures in glass
A new moon peaks through there to be hung in the sky
Should I really mind?

All the words that we say circulate in the mind;
Ricochets off the murmuring crowds
Through the garden, through the aisles
And I must ask to myself:
Am I, am I just this pitiful?
To the seismic throes under pressure
Reverberates through the wild
A silent silver eye blinks there hung in the sky
Should I really mind?

To avoid all the love that is pure and complete:
The only possession worth pursuing in time
I frantically disengage myself from the chaos
And all these messy possibilities
To jagged fault-line scrawls through the centre
I’m your volcano in the ground
A new moon for the clouds to slip behind
Should I really mind?

No, I don’t mind
No, I don’t mind
No, I don’t mind
