Slow Migration

Can we melt into my mattress,

Or disappear in the atmosphere?

Floating high above the flatness

Of the Earth down below,

That’s a joke; its a globe

Have you ever felt a sadness

That takes ahold, and won’t let go?

A dusty painted-over canvas,

A palimpsest, maybe, but I don’t know

Take a slow migration

To an unknown destination

Take it slow (take it slow)

All the self-anointed masters

Notching up their imaginary wins

But the only thing I’m after,

To be a beginner again,

Throw caution to the wind

Take a slow migration

To an unknown destination

Take a slow migration

To an unknown destination

(Take it slow)

Slow migration

To an unknown destination

Take a slow migration

To an unknown destination

Take it slow

Slow migration

To an unknown destination

Take it slow

Take it slow
