lyrics

i looked into the glass and caught sight of two big brown eyes
it was a baby’s face, sitting snug in his pram


thirstily drinking in the sights of the world in this dark, 
dank, train

with a hunger and wonder that made my bones ache with joy.
i sat in that train, and for the first time in 23 years, 
a new born babe.


i was nobody. and i was everybody.


freed from all the trappings of my DNA.

the outline of the pram and two little feet
 

the soundwaves in my cheap headphones
 

the contours of mountains that i dream to climb
lines, lines and lines and lines
 

all perfectly in sync.

extending forward, backward, inward and outward
reaching toward forever and way back then.

it occurred to me then that all our ridges
 

and valleys were the shape of the rubble of prams and
 

homes and all the human things the previous world left behind,
leaving us in bottomless circles of life after life after life 
 floating forward into a limitless nowhere


beating us ceaselessly into the past

i want
 

i want i want to be 
 gone
