the ocean roar in the dangling conversation
Then it goes to the intro again for the rest of the chorus:
and the superficial sighs
the borders of our lives.
Verse2: And you read your Emily Dickinson and I my Robert Frost
And we note our place with bookmarkers that measure what we've lost.
Like a poem poorly written
We are verses out of rhythm, couplets out of rhyme in synchopated time
Chorus: And the dangling conversation and the superficial sighs
Are the borders of our lives
Verse3: Yes we speak of things that matter with words that must be said
Can analysis be worthwhile? Is the theatre really dead?
And how the room is softly faded
And I only kiss your shadow I cannot feel your hand, you're a stranger
Now unto me
