Shapeless Man (feat. Jordan Dreyer of La Dispute) - Mouse On The Keysb
Lyrics by：Jordan Dreyer
Composed by：清田 敦
Days of disappearance I ghost alone
Half-sleeping toward market street
Blend into a northwest fog the color
Of ash to watch the ships from ballard bridge
In dreams I fade upward
Head sky-bound and evaporate
Collecting in the heavy low clouds above me
Particle by particle
Becoming rain becoming nothing
To fall
Down into the water below
Swept up in the currents flowing
Carried toward the open ocean mouth
Alone
Where I will like any other wave crest
And dissipate into a greater one than I
Be swallowed in a body not my own
Without frame and drift
Weightlessly among everything else
Lost forever without shape
In spaces I once swam through
But you
You are still an image vivid
And from the bridge I see you
In every ship split water wide open
Float on that formless indefinite mass
Where in all of my visions
I have disintegrated
Pixel by pixel into nothingness
Or else I am still my body
And you are the bridge itself
Holding me up above that cold abyss
Somehow despite everything I did
Selfless with your stress and mine
But it should not be your responsibility
To hold me up there or to bear
Any wight beyond your own
To be anxious in all ways and compensate
For a faith I lacked in me not
To break when I bent but I did
Because I was a waste and you were
Too patient with me too kind
Waiting for a shape to form
Returning again and again inexplicably
To restore by hand what
I once was and you knew somehow
But it never should have been
Your responsibility to fix me
Not now not ever
So why did you
I should be the mist that shrouds
The mountain range around you
Chased out with the winter
When the spring comes in
You should have let me fade
And be separated particle
By particle swirling in the ocean waves
Bodies aimless drifting without end again
Shapeless as the day that we first met
Days of disappearance I go
And do not go anywhere without you
Settle in both low clouds and
The flowers in our garden home
My silhouette a fixture
On the kitchen bricks
Let's go
