Capital Breath

Bear Quartet · Early Years [2003]

to live like that

out of everybody's way

and lie down upon a sunfresh trace

of a warm embrace

until it's gone

I admit

sometimes people make me



first silence soon another

in between we lose track of eachother

so I shiver to forget them all

I don't feel related

to any truth that's naked



and in the river,

leaves that lost their air

so beautiful to see it overflow

and drown, everyone

and then it's gone

then the moment's gone



first silence soon another

it always tracks me down

no questions asked

no answers around



time pauses

for the pain it causes

there is no reply
