In A Life

I'll meet you in the air

I'll meet you with the fare

On the Underground

Wherever you be found

I'll meet you there

I'll meet you in time

I'll meet you cruel or kind

The heart weighs a ton if you need someone

And they're standing on the platform

But it's the other side

I'll meet you in the air

I'll meet you when you're not there

The shopping list of all you missed

Let's go there

I'll meet you in the surreal

I'll meet you in the joy you steal

Stones and sticks you're kicking the pricks

And still I'm learning how to kneel

Or what not to feel

And when we reach the Circle line

And when we stop the clocks stopping time

To wake up an unforgiving son

Wake in the dream that overcomes

In a life we get a taste of it all

In a life

I'll meet you in the air

I'll meet you when you don't care

In the empty space that occupies your place

I'll meet you there

A penny on the track

We ran and get it back

The driver on the train

Whose soul's in so much pain

Says love will flatten

But it won't crack

The coin won't crack

And when we make our bed out of war

Deafen our children with its roar

Repeat rewind replay once more

Never unsee the sights they saw

In a life

We get caught in the traffic

In a life

We make misery from magic

In a life

We miss the comic in the tragic

In a life

In a life

I feel alone I need it known

I never achieved anything on my own

I feel alone I need it known

I only received from being shown

I feel alone I need it known

I never achieved anything on my own

A skipping stone I was thrown

The ocean floor is not my home

In a life

We catch a glimpse of someone else

In your eyes

Caught a glance of myself
