White Elephant

It's everywhere we go now Bearing all its weight Until it slows us both down Monolith of the day It's everywhere Look around, what sets this strange scene Pieces of a world where we are nothing Sleepwalk, find myself stuck in someone else's dream Interrupt and hear the cadence of the silent Sound of everything There was a warm home inside you Where you left the shades drawn, so I wandered in It's everywhere I go now Through my dreams tonight I didn't recognize you how I remembered from life It took me three whole years to Look you in the eye And even now I Sleepwalk, watch myself from above Always running to catch up When alone I remember the road when I could like it Calm before the time split Mission Central Station Drew your face from life From life so I could frame it Headlights pass by, drive me out of sight To the dark of the side where the rain comes down And it comes down We go further still in time (We have met before and we will meet again)
