So That We Can Be Still

love's followed my memories
 drawn out into infinity
 tried to grasp them but I always miss
 time goes by so fast as though it hardly wants to exist
 let's make a mask of our face, of our hands
 so that we can be still for a while
 for a while
 for a while
 all the many ways that you can choose to be alive
 all the countless steps you take before you have arrived
 all the passing faces going quickly on their way
 where are they going so quickly
 and where are you going to the same
 one moment you're awake and making a sound
 a lover asleep in your ground
 in your ground
 in your ground
 well shall we wrap it all up in bows
 thank you i have all my thoughts to go
 wrapped up in a bow to the rest of my song
 to hide away
 to hide it away
 to hide it away
 yeah hoping somebody might find it
 yeah hoping somebody might find it
 yeah hoping somebody might find it
 yeah hoping somebody might find it
