Mesopotamia

(album: The Speed Of Things - 2013)

Most of it's meaningless
If even that
Most of it's meaningless
Let's go back

Mesopotamia, you hide under the stars
It's the vastness that's so daunting
I'm so different, I hide under the stairs
It's the reason for my wandering

If it's me or if it's you
Doesn't matter what we do
We end up a couple lives in this

Let's go back

Mesopotamia, you know where things have been
It's the reason that I called you
Life so different, or maybe not at all
I guess we're always wondering

If it's me or if it's you
Doesn't matter what we do
We end up a couple lives in this

If even that

Let's go back

Waking life and sleeping death
You lived way beyond your breath
I wed you and you're a drag
I am me and you are you
Now to paraphrase what we do
We are more than what's defined in this

Encyclopedia
It can't hold that
Encyclopedia
It can't hold facts
Encyclopedia
It can't define that
Encyclopedia
It can't hold that
In all the madness
That falls flat
It doesn't leave us
It can't define that
Encyclopedia
It can't hold that
Encyclopedia
It can't define that
