Kino-The Knife

I heard a puff I heard a blow
I felt the ground I felt the snow
Thought of linen and of lace
I never really saw his face
I heard a grunt I heard a moan
I felt the sun
I saw the moon
I saw the northern light above and the eclipse of the sun
I am a breath I am a wish
I am a rocket and a fish
I felt his measures and his weight
My own body as a scale
I heard a whisper in my ear
“you are not here you are not here
I saw the northern light above and the eclipse of the sun
My feet was hurt and heals were sore
And I wonder why it burned

Then I had to climb down
I went down to see the sun rise
And then I had to climb back up again
I had to be there to see the sun rise
All the air that you sent to guide me had a tone of elephant grey
We were all there in the morning
We were there and we wanted to stay
