Lyrics
And all the time that is spent, and all the streets that are swept, You keep a logbook locked in the corner Severed all your ties with the piss-brown mule Growing up beneath the Nile delta We got a spindrift creepin' on the left side, You feel the warmth of a caribou's hide Sometimes the truth can evade you, Soot clogs your mind like mud in the membrane
You stand there waiting…so long Anticipating…someone Knossos ready guarding…salvo's And the veins are starting…to breed
But I wanna be with you To fly is to be brand new An eye for an eye, just you
Tunnel-vision lost upon the drunk man, He'll see much better at the end of the can Grab the guidance of a neon watchlight, Tryin to find what you lost in the cave Like snow in August like peaceful Caesar, Turn into a mayfly and fly away The flys are lucky to be, they pay an entry fee They calibrate the being in their heads
Call away from…your home Its beating like a…bass drum Antananarivo…crumbles And in the ashes…crosses
But I wanna be with you To fly is to be brand new An eye for an eye, just you
