Lyrics

What's the immaterial substance
That envelops two?
That one perceives as hunger
And the other as food
I awake in tangled covers
To a sash of snow
You dream in a cartoon garden
I could never know
Innocent imitation
Of how it would be
If when the music entered
You did not retreat
In my imagination
You are cast in gold
Your image, a compensation
For me to hold
Parallel lines move so fast
Toward the same point
Infinity is as near as it is far
Parallel lines move so fast
Toward the same point
Infinity is as near as it is far
