Supposed To Be (Silhouette)

Red dots on a city map
She peddles on from
the one spot right at the corner of the old town pub,
softly singing
Everything needs
and is a beginning

She's cycling down the canal
She peddles on from
one of her confidences' place
How the outline has always been
mere silhouette

But she's growing
round in circles
'Cause there's comfort on the road
Let her
She'll get there
The stops along the coast
The clouds and what they showed
She's right where she's supposed to be

She moved again, she sold her desk
A ballerina in arabesque missing on the shelf
The cabinets she put up herself
One girl offered to lend a hand
she used to write her stories
with open endings
The girl called her an artist once
but nowadays they don't talk that much
They both move on, they both forget
about the silhouette

But she's growing
round in circles
'Cause there only is the road
Let her
She'll get there
The stops along the coast
The clouds and what they showed
She's right where she's supposed to be

And it's a den you dig
as you reach to rest
The sign on the door that said
'Be gracious with the silhouette'
