In a Life

I'll meet you in the air I'll meet you with the fare On the Underground Wherever you be found I'll meet you there I'll meet you in time I'll meet you cruel or kind The heart weighs a ton if you need someone And they're standing on the platform But it's the other side I'll meet you in the air I'll meet you when you're not there The shopping list of all you missed Let's go there I'll meet you in the surreal I'll meet you in the joy you steal Stones and sticks you're kicking the pricks And still I'm learning how to kneel Or what not to feel And when we reach the Circle line And when we stop the clocks stopping time To wake up an unforgiving son Wake in the dream that overcomes In a life we get a taste of it all In a life I'll meet you in the air I'll meet you when you don't care In the empty space that occupies your place I'll meet you there A penny on the track We ran and get it back The driver on the train Whose soul's in so much pain Says love will flatten But it won't crack The coin won’t crack And when we make our bed out of war Deafen our children with its roar Repeat, rewind, replay once more Never unsee the sights they saw In a life We get caught in the traffic In a life We make misery from magic In a life We miss the comic in the tragic In a life In a life I feel alone I need it known I never achieved anything on my own I feel alone I need it known I only received from being shown I feel alone I need it known I never achieved anything on my own A skipping stone I was thrown The ocean floor is not my home In a life We catch a glimpse of someone else In your eyes Caught a glance of myself
