Bodily Functions

This world is not like mine
This future's far behind
Suddenly
I have no points of reference now
So suddenly
Our magnetic worth
Won't point the same way north
So suddenly
I'm free to fall
Far away from it all
But i can't move at all

This plan is not like mine
These walls aren't my design
Suddenly
I have no scale or balance now
So suddenly
These creases are folding in and up
And closing
Suddenly
I'm free to fall
Far away from it all
But i can't move at all

I
Still don't know you
(night is closing in)
Tired shoulders
It feels over
(it follows us again)
One year older

Leave me now
Never call again
Each new ending
So different
So different

Show me then
The things you do
Be the friend
I never knew
Show me things
That i cannot do
Do without

Or without you

Still don't know me
(tell me what you need)
Each roll over
It's so over
Can't console me

Leave me now
Never call again
Each new ending
So different
So different

Show me then
The things you do
Be the friend
I never knew
Show me things
That i can do
Do without
Or without you

Are you dreaming me?
Is this feeling you?
Are you thinking similar things
Or must i think for two?
Are we on our side?
Has our case been tried?
Has the thought of leaving ever left you?
(like a tide)

Should we carry on?
Or has it all been done now?

Is this what you heard?
Has the end occurred?
Is the last beat heard?

You're not my only friend
Not even my best
You're almost of essential though
Along with the rest
You're not my only sense
You're one of a few
You know when to leave alone
You show me the view

Allies across the years
You witnessed the best
Gave drainage for all my tears
And closed on request
You saw before me when
I knew it all
You turned the other way
Watching me fall

You see it all

If when you're leaving me
Remember me this
If we're dependent still
We cannot miss
You're maybe the last to go
Probably the first
Show me a little place
Where i can grow worse

And as you retreat from me
The closer i come
Further from yesterday
Nearer the sun
And though i may never see
All that you did
Promise me nothing more

You saw it all

Even then i must have known
Felt the stretch of skin on bone
As then
I stared
For too long at my own
On reflection

Only when my hands went numb
Failing cells of each begun
To touch
And spin
Like lines around the sun
On reflection

So tonight i sit and wait
Hear the sounds of life grow late
And look
Through the ice
Of an ever older me
On reflection

I am falling out of you
From heights
I never thought i knew
I am failing without you
In ways i always thought were new
Despite the knowing this is strange
Inside
I hope i'll never change
Shine
I'm trying to be brave
Bring me bring me
Bring the answers on in waves

Turn me on and watch me go
Straight and narrow
Nice and slow
Push me over see me spin
Watch me fight the fight the pull within

I am wasting without you
Broken pieces without glue
Why
Just as i think it's done
You're there
Darkening the sun?

Turn me on and watch me go
Straight and narrow
Nice and slow
Push me over see me spin
Watch me fight the fight the pull within
Turn me on and watch me go
Straight and narrow
Nice and slow
Push me over see me spin
Watch me fight the fight the laws within

It's so hard without you
Things aren't the same now
If you could speak now
Would you?
Words aren't the same now

Everything is still in me
I'm not the same now
You're so hard to remember
You're not the same now

I miss you

All i have is within you
Keep my past safe
All i have is within me
Keep my future safe

I miss you

It's only the tired clock ticking
It's only the part of the drum kicking
It's only the touch of you picking little of me
It's only my favourite face breaking
It's only the frozen ground shaking
It's only my bending eyes taking pictures of you

And though
It's been long
So so long to be here
And though
I was wrong
It took you to appear

Before i would run from you
But now
I come to you

Before i would run from you
But now
I come to you

Before i would run from you
But now
I come to you

I'm your flesh
You are my bones
You are endless shifting tones
You are my eyes I'm your ears
You are the salt within my tears
You are my noise you are my sound
You are the dark and shifting ground
You are my yes I'm your no
You are rarely wrong i know

So move with me
Move with me
With me removed
With me removed

So move with me
Move with me
With me removed
With me removed

You are my down you are my up
You're so now never give up
You are my last you are my first
You are my good luck and my worst
You are my love you are my pain
You see green when I see grey
You are my bad and I'm your good
There are words misunderstood

So move with me
Move with me
With me removed
With me removed

So move with me
Move with me
With me removed
With me removed

I'm your fingers you're my hand
I am your three man one man band
You're my feet i'm your toes
You are my breath i am your tongue
I feel old when you look young
You're my vision i'm your scent
you are borrowed i am lent

I am nervous you are calm
I see lines upon your palm
I am close we are near
Though the ending is not clear
We are seperate we are one
The division has begun
i'm your future you're my past
Even music will not last

So move with me
With me removed

You and us together
Together in this room
You will not remember
This passing moment soon

I am nervous you are calm
I see lines upom your palm
I am so close we are near
Though the ending is not clear
We are seperate we are one
The division has begun
I am the future you're my past
Even music will not last

So move with me
With me removed

You and us together
Together in this room
You will not remember
This passing moment soon
