Just to Be a Witness

She is mute, absolutely mute
And yet her silence is roaring
Her silence is loud

There's a song on every inch of her skin
It amazes me
And yet it is familiar to me

For i seem to know every word of it
Her singing flesh is the most
Intimate song i've ever heard

Now wouldn't you feel like singing along
Singing along with her
But wouldn't you feel like it'd be coarse too

You are not to sing along
This is a sacred tune
A sacred song

This is an unattainable chant
Which places her
Among the gods

I am staring at the ceiling
Looking right through the ceiling
Looking deep into the night

Her limbs are laughing
Yet this is no mockery
But a mere invitation

You can smile to her
You can listen to her
But you are not to sing along

You are just to be a witness
You are just to be a witness
You are just to be a witness

You are not to sing along
This is a sacred tune
A sacred song

This is an unattainable chant
Which places her
Among the gods
