Perhaps I can't hear the voices
that carry me away
with a growing quickness
from the latent memory
of those hard-fought days
made of blood and wind,
dried up,
made of blood and wind.
I'll destroy the figures,
every face I've seen,
to reconstitute them, but bettered,
to reconstitute them yet again
within myself.
Everything
is expecting to go,
or to go back to its place
and I could still be there
caressing winter
in a body of water,
I could still be,
caressing winter
in a body of water,
I could still be...
I could still be...
I could still be there.
Perhaps I can't hear the voices
that carry me away
with a growing quickness
from the latent memory
of those hard-fought days
made of blood and wind,
dried up,
made of blood and wind.
I'll destroy the figures,
every face I've seen,
to reconstitute them, but bettered,
to reconstitute them yet again
within myself.
