Fingerprints

When the lights came into focus
They had a thousand fingerprints
Perfectly symmetrical, floating
In your head
You sat on a piano
But you weren’t sure just how
You’re sick from all the yesterdays
But they’re dying now
Inside your live body
Your alive body
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Oh I was shaking
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Looking at the peak
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
I thought for sure that she was lost
But she flew high above the waterfall
The remains of every picture
Have started dripping out your ears
There’s no room for nostalgia
I’m understanding the idea
Your alive body
Your alive body
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Oh I was shaking
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Looking at the peak
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
I thought for sure that she was lost
All this time I saw your mind
Unchanging love
Telling stories in my mind
I’m hearing your call
And suddenly my understanding
Feels back to real
Suddenly I have the feeling
I didn’t know you at all
All this in my mind
Unchanging love
In my mind
I’m hearing your call
And I wanted to build you a ladder
But you cut my rope
And I wanted to climb up behind you
But you told me no
I just want to be better
I want to be better
I want to be better
I want to be better
I want to be better
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Oh I was shaking
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Looking at the peak
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
I thought for sure that she was lost
But she flew high above the waterfall
