cornerside, it’s cornerside’s time now
trying to keep up with you
everytime i seem to reach you
you’re ahead and i realize
that i did not take a step
cornerside, my cornerside’s time’s now
watching flow it slowly
watching reel it swift
and i can’t even help at all
my everything’s in it
bit by bit, i know
at nighttime i lie awake – aimlessly
feeling numb while sleep is coming
pushing it far as it draws in
thinking of what might have been
my eyes just could have seen
what now they won’t
i was once your night foglight
jew’s harp chasing the gloom
now i’m a wrong line to cross out
and you’ll be doing it soon
poles apart, we’ve got right poles apart now
now i can feel the distance, i can sense its depth
this time i promised to myself
i wouldn’t promise anything:
well, i’d already been deceived
at nighttime i lie asleep – blamelessly
dreaming what my heart denies
living as everything dies
probably forgetting
all the words that show me
this is not my time
you’re the echo of my shouts
my unavoidable sealed doom
you’re my jigsaw to solve out
but i won’t manage it soon
i won’t manage it soon
