Mick Karn 1990s

It's only a matter of time
Before my hands
Will cover the ground between us

The repetition of my life
Is ringing in my ears
My head feels abandoned
My face shows its years
The weight of my shoulders
Is held by my cane
Very soon I shall sleep
And remain...........

So private is my mind
That amidst the insensitive noise
Of a crowded room
I quietly fall in love
Unobserved

Every look you give
Every word you speak
Shows a power from within

Teach me this strength and we
will fight everything together
But turn your back on me
and my life will become a losing battle
