(Some ideas are borrowed from U2’s song `Running to standstill’ (Joshua Tree)
I woke up with her in the fire, earth and air
And saw it was all there
The warmth, the love, the light, the sonne et lumiere
And I thought this was everything, everywhere
She had golden pearls on her fingers and in her hair
Like a bride with a comely stare
And I was burning like a steak rare
Burning like the sun, the stars, with my dare!
You know I am only a sesame seed
You know, however, I did eternally bleed
Did it only take one drop, a sweaty bead?
How do you value my deed?
I see twelve towers now
But is there a way out? Is there a way out?
I thought we could be freer, if we were all about
When they read my mind, do they think they have clout?
And do they then think they can pillory God, without doubt?
I think I am going to shout…going to scream and shout…
Till the Universe runs aground like a windmill
that has suddenly gone still, my will?!
Let it be that I am only doing it from my straitjacket at my window sill
For, I am shinier than the sun, I am brille
And who will ultimately foot the bill?
My Goddess, my baby girl, are we running to standstill?
