Day Is Gone

Telling familiar stories

Invited us to our home for some soup

Bothered by steam

We clipped our wing, so we can't fly

Better than better than what?

Some dying off

A rocket ship

Looks as if a day is gone

Looks as if a day is missing

Everyone's trying to leave

Lorries driving to the sea

Who is that who slammed the door?

Looks as if a day has gone away

More active than scraps alive

Sleep for weeks but often stirring

More alive than anyone swears

As born were we from hollow trees

Telling familiar stories

Invited us to our home for some soup

Bothered by steam

We clip our wing, so we can't fly away

Looks as if a day is gone

Looks as if the day is playing

Looks as if a day is gone

Looks as if a day has gone away
