On the Faultline (Closure to an Animal) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I am a man
You fell down from that apple tree
The other day with me
And now
You ask me to apologise for slowly
Crawling up from the sea?
[Verse 2]
We never seem to find
The time to sit by the fire
Under the crescent moon
Lead a meaningful life

[Verse 3]
You ever wonder, love
If you could one day board a flying contraption
And see the world?
Without me?
Leave me behind to solve all the puzzles you have
Drawn on these walls over time

[Verse 4]
What if I could somehow store
Good memories in clouds
And fly to touch the moon
And your hand at the same time
[Pre-Chorus]
Here I stand and look at my life
Barren, cold and incomplete
A mirror smiles at me with teary disdain
Pointing out the faults in me

[Chorus]
Memories of holidays with you
Will rain on me from time to time
We have the road within ourselves
To countless paradises
When there is a tunnel there's a light
The thought is causing tremors
On the faultline between you and I

[Verse 5]
The clouds always trail the sun
And floods put out the fires
To flush away the signs of
The loves of our lives
[Pre-Chorus]
Here I stand and look at my life
Barren, cold and incomplete
Mirror smiles at me with a teary disdain
Pointing out all faults in me

[Chorus]
Memories of holidays with you
Will rain on me from time to time
We are the road, the paradise
The broken wheel of fortune
When there's a tunnel there's a light
The thought is causing tremors
On the fault line between you and I

[Outro]
When I'm without you
Am I the only human here?

Dancing on this fault line...
