Hercules

In the morning, your face cracks and falls to the sea

The sun follows your step and leads you back to me

You keep telling yourself that you're here, but you're not alone

And you get the feeling your mind is not your own

In the evening, the sun's red gown turns to brown

The moon follows you to the beach, then it swallows you down

Strange how you change and end up at her feet

You keep telling yourself, but you know that you're not to be believed

You and me and Hercules in between

You and me and Hercules in between

Shadows rise from the plain, fifty men row

In the distance, the ships in the waves cash in their loads

On the hill, stands colossus and your mind can't feel

Clouds from your past now, at last, open to reveal

You and me and Hercules in between

You and me and Hercules in between

Across the desert sand, no one knows your name

And you wish you were somewhere else with some kind of fame

What appears as your shadow is formless as a mist

You keep telling your friends you know it exists

One becomes two, then before you, turns to three

And words climb your tongue like a ladder to speak

Drifting as you go, but you row till it seems

All is one, all is mind, all is lost, and, you find, all is dream

You and me and Hercules in between
