You seem to know this bed won't keep us safe forever
You know thoughts are thought
Looks are looked things are said regardless
And how is it that you know?
Tell me, why when my pillow is a mirror
I sleep so much and still no clearer?
I ought to know this bed won't keep you here forever
I know thoughts are thought, looks are looked, things are said regardless
And how is it that I know?
Tell me, why when our sheets try to hear
I talk so much and still no clearer?
Delight in the moon three quarters round
Kiss in the street, sleep on the ground
Delight in the moon one quarter shy
A night full of empty, and saturn maybe
We seem to know this bed won't keep us safe forever
We know thoughts are thought, looks are looked, things are said regardless
And how is it that we know?
Tell me, why when the sky starts to clear
I don't look up? I'm still no nearer.
But it's thoughtless no, thoughtless not
It's thought full of empty and space full of thought
It's the gift of passing screaming "nothing forever"
Nothing forever
