Elektricity Will Keep Me Warm

Woken

I wanna wake up with the birds

Be welcomed into their home

Half of me is dry and half swimming out to sea

Half filled up and half alone

 

Puzzled

How can I keep myself in one piece

Trying out my body’s power

You couldn’t be what we wanted you to be

But electricity will keep me warm

 

I wanted so to be your hummingbird

When I know I can have all of you

But now the garden gate’s not open

I don’t think I can get through

 

Lying beside you sometimes I see stars

I start to hover, floating away

Uncreated worlds slowly approaching

I am cold and I am brave

 

Regarding the work/love ratio

I’ve found that, instead of feeling torn:

Darling, there’s no need to worry

‘cause electricity will keep me warm
