Lyrics

In order to be It needs only itself In a primitive upsurge A psychic sleep Passes obliquely Across the borders of the body Between the various windows Where the world waits Where the world waits It's there I wonder A transparent sheet of gelatine Operating and over coating the earth Where no perspective Changes the direction of the wind I wander to a place Displaced By a necessity As vague as the light of this window Where your palms loose the syllables of their pressed shadows Where the grain of the glass lies In the beginning of this sentence That is transparent Because what it says has so little meaning And two faces One on each side of its gaze Enclosing each of it's moments in Indefinite movements As if expressing the end To everything which ends in you Changing the direction of the wind I want to Where the world waits Time passes obliquely across the borders of the body Where the world waits It's there I wander
