Interview With A Black Hole
set the recorder, ask the void what it knows
feel the drag and pull but hear no noise
then throbs of pain disrupt my heart
does the void cause that or
was it there from the start?
sometimes my untrained ear hears more
"don't view as a void but an unseen door"
but I'm on the outside, I can't pass through
I feel shut out whilst trying to talk to you
this power over me I can't explain
though I agree to join forces
but then you refrain
I want to walk away but I stay in place
often with tears streaming down my face
surely not just a void, please show me more
nothing to challenge what I concluded before
but the energy I feel when we touch
makes me forget, think nothing is too much
so I hover right here, waiting to know
feeling disconnect, like I really should go
molecules that separate, don't want to mix
but shake us up and it looks like we're fixed
interview attempted, tell me how things are
but just one sided chat that has gone too far
held in the dark, drawn onto this ride
forget my own mind, I'm not on my own side
so compelling to be around, an attraction beckons
years pass me by, in a couple of your seconds
you're all knowing and I'm useless chatter
I'm important now, but if I concede I won't matter
no one is wiser at the end of these tapes
I could listen on loop
remake all my mistakes
you're a force on me I cannot translate
a life time stranded
in the name of fate
