revelation - juliana daugherty lyrics

Loading...

i’ll never see it as you do
how can i comprehend what’s true
when almost everything there is
escapes my sight?

our cells divide and multiply
electric pluses, neurons fire
invisible, untroubled by attending eyes

some days i measure every word that you have spoken
like charting out the surface of an ocean
so easy to take comfort in the notion
that i know you—i know no one

the shadow blurs your body un*
familiar, your lines undone
in angular distortion, flung
your sleeping form

to touch is resonant and bright
but though i pull you to my side
it never culls the appetite
for human warmth

someday i know the bonds that keep us will be broken
we may outrun our bodies any moment
and the mouth of revelation will not open
i don’t know you—there’s know time
mysterious desires
are governing your life

you’re not the way i hold you in my mind
what is it worth, to know that i still try?
