This Island Earth

So I send an SOS

Semaphore myself

Catch me falling

Finally

Through the air and underground

Everywhere this sound

Screams a whisper

I can’t breathe

I feel it in my bones

Though I know I’m not alone

You’re spinning far too far

From me

So cruel to be so kind

Now I know I’ll always find

This island earth A mystery

As I stumble through the dark

Dream lovers dream apart

Starry eyed a vision Rushes in

Do I wonder or care

My spirit’s bleeding

God knows where

A never-ending stream

I tried to love, tried to find

My soul in shadows, running blind

And restless As the sea

Via sidewalks through the haze

Wandering as in a maze

Lost in number Time and space

So near and yet so far

Cast away as strangers are

This island earth

And you and me
