Black Current
Last night I dreamt that I was a birdLift with the wind, long black wings would unfold.But when I dared to look down to the ground, to the groundI felt my bones growHeavy and cold, oh ohWhy do I shake so?I cannot fall.Last night I dreamt that I was a houseFlames leapt from the stove and licked at the walls.I screamed from my windows 'Get out, oh get out, I'll explode!'I am not safePull me from KansasWhy do they think I look safe and secure?Last night you dreamt that I was a birdThe whitest feathers and I soared.I don't want to hurt the faith you have put.But if you could reserve it 'till at least I have stood.Last night I dreamt of black current, river of voicesSink below; it forgives all my choices.But when I look on to the sea, to the OceanI feel my limbs shrinkInto my fins and I thinkIf I could just swim from Letras de cancionesThe lights of the shore.Last night I dreamt I was deep inside the mouth of a monster,Green paper filled my breastAnd I woke to breathe, Sat up for to free myselfAnd there you were,Just standing thereI don't know if I can do this.There's too many dangers.You might burn for me,For last night I dreamt you dreamt That I was a bird
