The Hall Songtext
von Jo Mango

I hear you moving in the hall
Tracing waves along the wall
Your fingers pushing through the air
Pushing me to... somewhere

I cannot hold you like a friend
You flame and flare and flicker
Then the cinders helicopter down
You′re spent and space contracts
Again... somehow


You're molten, smoothing, soothing
Sighs and tides and liquified
Ache for place and time extinct
The brink, the plain, the valley, to the climb
To the cool of the valley again
You are the crack in the windowpane
The slack-jawed, free fall, overawe
The start, the flinch, the wincing heart
The off, the on, the here, the gone
Beyond the gone, the off, the on
The off, the on, the off, the on, the off...

A hush has fallen on the crowd
I take a seat and keep my head down
"You are not mine", I say
"You are not mine"
Then I open my mouth and join the sound
