Ascent Through Clouds - Dirty Projectors
[Verse 1]
You're alone even though you're the same
As everyone with your ketchup left and you changeable flame
I go out for a walk
Back way through the fog to the moon with who I talk
I am so myself, I am no one else
You are one who helped me and took my help
I fly fluid and remade
Ascending through the clouds and joining the constellation
There was never more than now
Urge and urge again, newly took and new endowed
I am not contained
In my chest or in my brain
I am energy unconstrained
And even though I want to
I find it hard to stay
In constant contact
Sometimes I go away
Sometimes I go away
[Non-Lyrical Vocals]
[Left]
Solitude becomes alienation
And leads you to togetherness
Pleasure slides into pain
And into pleasure again
Forgiveness, need, apology
Redemption and surrendering
Strangers become friends
And then strangers again
I become you and you become me
Suddenly we are not who we were
Passion and intellect combine
In human love:
Highest common denomination [Right]
The feeling of weariness
The slide in between pain and bliss
The surrender to forgiveness
The happy acceptance of a kiss
Inevitability
Of sadness
The river washing us away
Washing the garbage too and trash
Love and gratitude for the
Opportunity
One more chance maybe
To see the sun raise
[Non-Lyrical Vocals]
[Outro]
Even though I want to
I find it hard to stay in constant contact
I gotta go my own way
