Aeroplane, a silver membrane*
Cutting slate gray skies
Submarine, a silver membrane
Diving straight, diving straight
I can't dive, I can't fly
I cannot follow
I must trudge on my own
I cannot borrow from tomorrow
Thinnest membrane
Hollow cell frame
Piercing, breaking
Surface tension
And I said, I said,
"Please don't leave me alone"
And you said, you said,
You wouldn't go very far
You'll forget about me
And I will be so lonely
Whichever way you depart
Far away is too far
