Traintime

Along the track the wires are humming
in bursts of code like far-off drums....
Fathering the message:
further up the line
someone's shouting
down the passage of time.
The corridor restrains the window,
no view without the eye within....
bold upon the threshold
but holding on the line
we're shouting
down the passage of time.
Relatives speak on the phone, on the train,
talking before they have thought to explain;
Voices pitched wildly on tracks in the night
can't pick the pace up -
Oh let there be light!
How light becomes the soul!
You know yourself the centre of attention,
You see yourself the locus of event...
I'm sorry if it's painful quarrying the line,
stage centre, shouting down the passage of time.
The corridor retains it's shadows,
it's secrets compartmentalised....
damping down on ambience,
damp the teeth and grind,
shouting down the passage of time!
What's there to see or make clear?
What's there to know
when the voice is right here?
What's there to promise or vow?
What's to believe when the time is right now?
Relatives spoke on the phone, on the train,
talking before they had sought to retain;
Voices projected, spears in mid-flight,
frozen forever...
Oh let there be light!


Mirror lyrics:

Oh let there be light!
frozen forever...
Voices projected, spears in mid-flight,
talking before they had sought to retain;
Relatives spoke on the phone, on the train,
What's to believe when the time is right now?
What's there to promise or vow?
when the voice is right here?
What's there to know
What's there to see or make clear?
shouting down the passage of time!
damp the teeth and grind,
damping down on ambience,
it's secrets compartmentalised....
The corridor retains it's shadows,
stage centre, shouting down the passage of time.
I'm sorry if it's painful quarrying the line,
You see yourself the locus of event...
You know yourself the centre of attention,
How light becomes the soul!
Oh let there be light!
can't pick the pace up -
Voices pitched wildly on tracks in the night
talking before they have thought to explain;
Relatives speak on the phone, on the train,
down the passage of time.
we're shouting
but holding on the line
bold upon the threshold
no view without the eye within....
The corridor restrains the window,
down the passage of time.
someone's shouting
further up the line
Fathering the message:
in bursts of code like far-off drums....
Along the track the wires are humming
