Running Glass

from Noli Timere by Construction & Destruction

/

lyrics

See through the glint of running glass,
screwed up; brittle and easily shattered.
You shed or are shattered.
I pick up debris.

It seems like the itch is behind the mask.
Your fingers move futile;
steadily scanning;
every spare moment spoken for.

Night after night, spinning long fingers.
Cross, uncross and cross off the list.
Corner cobwebs knocked out with the blow of a kiss.

I am envious.
I am envious, drifting in and out of awareness.
A slight pull on the surface.
You’re a spider on water;
set adrift with the blow of a kiss.

Hark!
Out of the dark:
gleaming eyes and a little face.
Are you part of the house or part of the dark?
“Little things can die very suddenly”, you said to me.

Make!
Earthquake!
Flatten the driveway with your little rake.
I dream of the beach. I dream of the sea.
Salt air and the smell of sunscreen on every baby.
Oh, dream of me…
