~ Welcome ~

Words ~
The immortality of silent thoughts ~
Can they capture the essence of truth...
Or mere attempts of engraving life ~

Here I come as the dreamer
wakes to a world of unknown shore
like the sand
in between fingers of drifting sea
I wait for the call to bring those words

Empire of the Sun - We Are the People ( lyrics )

We can remember swimming in December.
Heading for the city lights in 1975.
We share in each other.
Nearer than farther.
The scent of a lemon drips from your eyes.
We are the people that rule the world.
A force running in every boy and girl.
All rejoicing in the world.
Take me now - We can try.
We lived an adventure
Love in the Summer.
Followed the sun till night
Reminiscing other times of life.
For each every other
The feeling was stronger.
The shock hit eleven - Got lost in your eyes.

I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me. But I know I try.
Are you gonna leave me now.
Can't you be believing now.

I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me. But I know I try.
Are you gonna leave me now.
Can't you be believing now.

Can you remember and humanize.
It was still where we'd energized.
Lie in the sand and visualize like it's 75 again.
We are the people that rule the world.
A force running in every boy and girl.
All rejoicing in the world.
Take me now - We can try.
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me. But I know I try.
Are you gonna leave me now.
Can't you be believing now.
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me. But I know I try.
Are you gonna leave me now.
Can't you be believing now.

I know everything about you.
you know everything about me.
you know everything about us.
(x2)

I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me. But I know I try.
Are you gonna leave me now.
Can't you be believing now.
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me. But I know I try.
Are you gonna leave me now.
Can't you be believing now.
*repeats and fades*

What a gorgeous song...
first heard of this when I was with A in burger king,
one of those moments we share child like delight,
and wondered in our weightless days.
