Beats by Sonnenburg - Part 1

Your shoulder lingers near my skin

I once believed the heart only grows,
that caring for strangers
would somehow make me larger inside.
But the years passed quietly,
and I found myself unable
to care for the one person
I kept abandoning.
Why was it so hard to step out?
Why couldn’t I?
I take apart clocks
as if their mechanisms were my own,
trade out the screws that hold time in place,
install new software,
hoping an update might begin
in the chambers of my chest.
But when I looked again,
my heart had shrunk—
filled not with what I love,
but with the people and systems
I can no longer forgive.
Why is that?
I slip in memory cards,
replace tiny chips,
customize myself again and again,
and still I press
the same inevitable button.
Yes or no.
Yes or no.
This world of concrete and glass
closes around me,
even when I fill a small tent
with the scent of cedar,
even when the forest is real
and breathing around me.
Still, it becomes
a concrete wilderness.
And when the rain begins to fall,
you lift your camera
toward the sky reflected
in a shallow pool—
a quiet universe trembling
on the surface of the world.
I take apart clocks again,
exchange the screws,
install the updates.
And still I return
to the same small chip,
the same old button.
Yes or no.
Yes or no.
La la la la la.

LYRICS:
When I wake up in the morning’
I see nothin’
For miles and miles and miles
When I sleep in the evening
Oh Lord
There she goes
Only in dreams, she’s only in dreams
Well, well my love
We’ve been here before
Don’t drag me through this again
We've tried everything under the sun
Now I’m trying to wake up from this
I’m trying to make up for it
All we ever do
Is all we ever knew
(La la la la la la)
You don’t see why your world has no love to give
Well, what goes around comes around
I know sometimes you get so caught in a dream
But now its time to wake from this
Its time to make up for it
Yes its time to wake up from this
Its time to make up for it
All we ever do
Is all we ever knew
(la la la la la la)
I’m feelin’ low, feelin’ high
feelin’ down, why isn’t this enough?
All we ever do
Is all we ever knew
Its time to wake up from this
(la la la la la la)
