Boy Child |
| You’ll lose your way |
| A boy child rides upon your back |
| Take him away |
| Through mirrors dark and blessed with cracks |
| Through forgotten courtyards |
| Where you used to search for youth |
| Old gets a new life |
| Reach out, you can touch, it’s true |
| He’s not a shadow |
| Of shadows, like you, you see |
| Hearts hold on holding |
| If you stay one, you’ll stay free |
| Go seek the lady |
| Who will give, not take away |
| Naked with stillness |
| On the edge of dawn she stays |
| Night starts to empty |
| That’s when her song begins |
| She’ll make you happy |
| She’ll take you deep within |
| Window lights for wanderers |
| Hide hard in your swollen eyes |
| Echoes of laughter |
| Hide in the cities' thighs |
| Love, catch these fragments |
| Swirling through the winds of night |
| What can it cost |
| To give a boy child back his sight? |
| Extensions through dimensions |
| Leave you feeling cold and lame |
| Boy child mustn’t tremble |
| 'cos he came without a name |
