Infrared

[Verse 1] I came along an empty planet Where I was born beside a lake The days were long, and there was nothing in my eye Not a tear, not a bird, not a snake And Phillip claimed I must have missed him At the point of faith and misbelief The red man died without a spear there at his side I never learned the shape of a maple leaf [Chorus] In infrared Is there anyone talking? In infrared Is there anyone hocking A sign of life, something bright throwing heat? In infrared In a little black box They won’t forget Through the ticks, and the tocks In a little wood chest There’s a little heart with a beat A little heart with a beat A little heart with a beat [Verse 2] She awoke the vast reflection The way we hold, let go, repeat To synthesize a joy in someone’s afterlife I never knew, I never know, I never tried [Chorus] In infrared Is there anyone talking? In infrared Is there anyone hocking A sign of life, something bright throwing heat? In infrared In a little black box They won’t forget Through the ticks, and the tocks In a little wood chest A little heart with a beat A little heart with a beat A little heart with a beat A little heart with a beat A little heart with a beat [Outro] A little heart with a beat A little heart with a beat A little heart with a beat A little heart with a beat
