Walk Like You

You know more than you think you know

This universe is in your eyes

Inside the galaxies collide

Which parent told you that you're slow

My absent dad, my mum's control

Schooled me to be a worker drone

So this is it

A life on earth

We're made of stars

We're made of dirt

Unconsciousness

We disconnect

Tone deaf to calling

We learn to walk like you

Talk like you

Oo-be-do

Think like you

Whine like you

Love like you in pieces

God knows I know no better

Easy to say that I can talk

I can talk

You know more than you think you know

Your DNA is pulsed by stars

Reveal the cogs that wheel the show

So this is it

A universe of birth and death

Love and neglect

But we forget

Dad's off on tour or in a meeting

We will not walk like you

Talk like you

Oo-be-do

Fight like you

Screwed like you

Break like you

In pieces

God knows I know no better

Easy to say that I can talk

I can talk

Welcome to our coming of age

To embrace all that we've become

Bored with your stories of pain

Shoot yourself

With a ricochet

You don't know, you don't know, you don't know

You don't know, you don't know me

You don't own, you don't own, you don't own

You don't own, you don't own me

Let's inspire

Let's inflame

Create art from our pain

Find a love that's as deep as it's holy

Let's inspire

Let's inflame

Create dance from our pain

Find a love that's as sweet as it's holy

Let's inspire

Let's inflame

Create dreams from our pain

Find a love that's as plain as it's holy

Let's inspire

Let's inflame

Create song from our shame

Find a love that won't fade, love is holy

But I can talk
