From the recording Kiss of Ghosts
Lyrics
Picking my way across a loneliness
Thinking of belonging I’m dreaming of a kiss
And I will walk among the people feeling like a child
Holding my heart in staring through these eyes
I am remarkable breathless at beginning
Balanced on the starting line hungry to be living
And I want everything right now and I want everything right now
Sugar is so sweet upon my tongue it almost kills me
The thinnest thought of love so warm it fill me with such
Doubts what if I never reach the end and get the prize
Living with holes in my heart and hollows for my eyes
They tell me that I think too much tell me not to worry
Time is fluid time is thin the journey’s sweet don’t hurry
And I want everything right now and I want everything right now
I sit here silent while my heart beats like a bird
Trapped inside my ribcage while I’m trapped beneath my words
That won’t fall that won’t utter from my cold untasted lips
While the time rains down around me in loud unending drips
I am immortal I am rising with the morning
I am wonder I am dreams I am the new day dawning
And I want everything right now and I want everything right now
The road is hard the road is cold so many people bought and sold
I’m standing here watching the world go round and round and round
My fingers itch to feel it all grab it hard and risk the fall
To fly through the air to lie hard on the ground
And I want everything right now and I want everything right now
And I want everything right now
