Pell Mell

Sixing and sevening
ducking and diving in,
loving and leaving it and
losing all your self.
Into the outside
out with the inside
into the spaces that we keep
between ourselves.
For you there is no hope at all.
It goes down and down.
You know it’s an easy ride.
All the space that you see between us,
no, we can’t hide.
Wearing it lightly
growing like topsy
sleeping and waking up and nothing inbetween.
Out of the zone
and into the darkness,
walking a line between
the people at your side
with nothing to fear
but yourself.
It goes down and down.
You know it’s an easy ride.
All the space that you see between us,
no, we can’t hide.
Ah you wear it lightly.
When did we grow so old and frightened?
Ah you wear it softly
when did we grow so far away from ourselves?
Ah you wear it lightly,
how did we ever get so scared?
It goes down and down.
You know it’s an easy ride.
All the space that you see between us,
no, we can’t hide.
We can’t hide.
