Original lyric sketch · Fictional voice · Lyrics only · Words that carry their weight
Verse
One page after another,
one unannounced return;
I leave the ending that repeats
where there is something left to learn.
Refrain
Give the little word a thing it can hold.
Let the room keep breathing.
Let the words arrive.
Leave a little space for what is still alive.
