Why Are We Alive - Swans



I saw you kneeling on a desert plateau

Your eyes were melting from inside your skull

The wind was burning holes into my skin

Where does a body end?

Your voice is drifting through the stratosphere

My mouth is drinking from your pool of tears

I saw your heartbeat in the radium screen

What does a body mean?

The future's leaking through a shut lead door

In the ruins of a city under the forest floor

Your naked body's buried in a vacant field

What does your body feel now?

The air is black and has no oxygen

The bodies in the river float beneath the sun

Transparent skin it shines a light from deep within

Where does your body begin?

The stars are hidden by a mirrored sky

And darkness disappears behind reflected light

Perception is a distance in a closed-in space

How will your body escape?

The crowd is feeling you inside your head

Your imagination's canceled by the opposite

And every possibility's been proved untrue

Now is your body you?
