Tortoise of Independency

Strokes our silence soft It's been a while since her days have been And in the cavernous sheets She feeds a tortoise of independency Why do you walk with me so slow? Said I walk like I'm in a trance And I spoke I said, "I just want this moment to last and to last" See those figures, wade alone On the park bench of memory It's been and gone And yeah, I think about the dreams I've had for so long So long, so long So long, so long
