Now

i've got to get up.                  push work i love and hate.
make what is the life.         create what is the day.
i have no time for me.         take what i can't claim.
rest my past and destiny.  rename the things i can't see.
                                     i lie awake.

now, he is to me.                  sight and vision.
now, transcendence.           facsimile.
now, the night.   now, the day.   both sun rays.
now, he is what i want.        what i want to not replace.

somewhere. somewhere.  is he the bond i'm trying to hold?
sometime.  sometime.        is he the switch i'm trying to mold?
somewhere. somewhere.  can i be on top without him there?
sometime.   sometime.       blind one day, i'll really care.
