[00:24] I can't make the hills
[00:25] The system is shot
[00:27] I'm living on pills
[00:29] For which I thank G-d
[00:35] I followed the course
[00:37] From chaos to art
[00:39] Desire the horse
[00:42] Depression the cart
[00:49] I sailed like a swan
[00:51] I sank like a rock
[00:53] But time is long gone
[00:56] Past my laughing stock
[01:05] My page was too white
[01:07] My ink was too thin
[01:09] The day wouldn't write
[01:11] What the night pencilled in
[01:18] My animal howls
[01:20] My angel's upset
[01:23] But I'm not allowed
[01:25] A trace of regret
[01:31] For someone will use
[01:33] What I couldn't be
[01:36] My heart will be hers
[01:38] Impersonally
[01:44] She'll step on the path
[01:45] She'll see what I mean
[01:50] My will cut in half
[01:51] And freedom between
[01:57] For less than a second
[02:01] Our lives will collide
[02:02] The endless suspended
[02:05] The door open wide
[02:13] Then she will be born
[02:15] To someone like you
[02:17] What no one has done
[02:18] She'll continue to do
[02:28] I know she is coming
[02:30] I know she will look
[02:33] And that is the longing
[02:35] And this is the book
