Do you mean you were just lying there?
Out of reach of anyone who cares
They have bound you with their loving arms
In the distance I still hear you sound the alarm
Can you see yourself more clearly now?
As if you stepped out of a cloud
Beginning when it seems to end
Above below merging
Your mind doesn't feel
Your fingers don't think
Your eyes do not touch
While the heartbeat goes skipping away
It's now and then you're living
While you wait start the giving
Prove it it's always there
Burning grey without its flare
Obligated but one hand is tied
Constant chattering within your mind
How to leave it no one cares
To hear the silly language spoken there
Your mind doesn't feel
Your fingers don't think
Your eyes do not touch
While the heartbeat goes skipping away
It's now and then you're living
While you wait start the giving
Prove it it's always there
Burning grey without its flare
There's a love that empties its own veins
As they spend they fill up again
The flow traffics through eternity
Carries on in all purity
Now you feel and you think
You see and you touch
With a matrix that springs from your heart
To your hands through your head
Burning grey
It's now and then you're living
While you wait start the giving
Prove it it's always there
Burning grey without its flare
