The World
|
| 作詞 ユートピア |
|
Your world is as big as you make it.
I know, for I used to abide
In the narrowest nest in a corner,
My wings presing close to my side.
But I sighted the distant horizon
Where the sky line encircled the sea
And I throbbed with a burning desire
To travel this immensity.
I battered the cordons around me
And cradled my wing on the breeze
Then soared to the uttermost reaches
With rapture, with power, with ease!
The city is so big
Its bridges quake with fear
I know, I have seen at night
The lights sliding from house to house
And trains pass with windows shining
Like a smile full of teeth
I have seen machines eating houses
And stairways walk all by themselves
And elevator doors opening and closing
And people disappear.
