Can you feel it in the dead of night?
It's all around but can't be seen
Can you hear it in the parking lot?
It only speaks when spoken to
Can you find it in the marathon?
The more you take the more you leave
Can you see them in a pane of glass?
You know them but they don't know you
I can see it now
What gets lost but never found?
What could fasten two
Yet only touches one?
Who could make it hurt
As much as it did before?
(You could tie a string
Around the place where it used to show)
I can hear the ocean when I say your name
In the yellow hem of the sea's blue skirt
You're the last asleep on a one-way train
It's been eight years if it's been a day
You can see her in a pane of glass
You think you know her but you don't
You share a family but you don't share a name
Some things run deeper than blood
No answers
No answers when you're not around
