Hibernation Songtext
von Miët

When day and night race after one another
When one engulfs the other, no longer ruling
Over the thickening favour of time
When they are undivided and complete
Then you are asleep, away
Away from the rushing footsteps that beat the concrete ground
Trusting not to miss the morning train
Away from the clattering crockery that greets the hungry workers
On their daily break from unrequited ambitions
Away from the laughter of that inebriated crowd
Whose song lingers in the night, undying
You are asleep
Yet for you to dream is to walk, to eat, to drink
And while you bathe in that unwavering warmth, sated and safe
Your breath plays with the gentle motion of your heartbeat
Out of the corner of your eye
You see the burning thread of light
To those who broke you, and left you for dead
To those who fed you, with ghosts and guilt


To those who disapprove, and are quick to blame
You will no longer comply
To those who demand you wake up, stand, move already
Even to those who care for you, you owe nothing
Dream away my love
Until your strength is revealed, undivided and complete
Out of the corner of your eye
You see the burning thread of light
Seeping its way through
Out of the corner of your eye
Whoever you are, will fall short of the standards
Of the crows that fail east and west and pale compared to you
Through mud, haze, wind and passion
That is your song resounding, ever undying
Through angers, losses, ambition, what you keep is your way
Whoever you are will fall short of the standards
Of the crows that fail east and west and pale compared to you
Whoever you are will fall short of the standards
Of the crows that fail east and west and pale compared to you
