Sometimes the sun is so strong
That I melt down to juice
Swim in myself in a sticky red pool on the floor
So full of joy I could burst
Into chromatic flames
So beautiful and I know
That I need nothing more
Like a bullet from muzzle to marrow
We pass through this life
And from cradle to grave we are lost
And confused and deranged
Bombarded by beauty
Belittled and honored and loved
I hope that we get to do it all over again
And when the night comes on
All of us go down quiet
Eventually no more
Worries or carеs, nothing is left
But should we wake up warm
Hеld in our mothers’ arms
Listening for radio bursts
Static that tells us who we are
Are we lonely or not
Is this thing that we’ve got worth the risk
Do we dare to speak up – wear our true hearts like tasteless old ties
All these infernal ladders to nowhere
Detract from the light
Is it courage I lack, or a sense of direction in life
For when the night comes on
All of us go down quiet
Eventually no more
Worries or cares, nothing is left
But should we wake up warm
Held in our mothers’ womb
Listening for radio bursts
Static that tells us who we are
Then we will smile and fade
Into the break of day
A tunnel of light, that first desperate cry
Something is good just out of sight
The voice in the dark
