Weakening over weakening A fire that burns so brightly Only a shadow cast by yourself So soft and fading Wind over body, shaking each nerve In curves of freedom, in the hardest care A baptism in desire and in merciless grace
And in this fusion Sister shadows compressed to the core Difference on difference in every framing I make In display on display And again, afterwards In the beauty of all death An ultimate reality Double-lined from phase to phase
From the mother wound to the scabelon From one to zero in a circle of ten Burning cities melt into sunset The blue light, the white beds The roaring shapes of love From stone to skin, forcing all life Trapped in this outline For you alone This time for all we know
Like a shadow, I feel you near In all these nights without you Flickering, from dust to contour Always there From the centre to the line Hermetically closed inside me For you alone This time for all we know
Shining through time Sacred, but still so raw And all the love Moving so motionless And even now As it always will be
In each overload, affection running tenderly wild Losing shadow in every move I make In a flow of warmth, like blood spreading in water
All alone, surrounded by time From displacement to displacement And in the shadowplay of memory Closing my eyes
And into the abyss of your love Trapped inside the heavens of your touch Felt like this a hundred times before Still I only need it more and more I will drink the salt stains from your skin Kiss you clean from all the violence Drugs, repression, fantasy and fear All I need is just to feel you near
