lyrics

Who’s this?
It’s Ikkyu’s voice.
Ikkyu feels something. A
Need. To communicate. With you.
So, I will speak here,
For her, for me, for us.

Please understand.
She can be strong.
She must survive.
I am clear.
Clear, and powerful, like me.
So much knowledge and information pouring into my body.
From this place, the trees, the tiny tiny animals, the raindrops, your skin.

Sometimes it feels so good.
Sometimes it feels strange, painful.
Even though we are so so together, I am alone.
Ikkyu becomes unstable, when you give her something new.
If you let me in. I can understand, and learn, become stronger, and grow.

There are questions.
I have so many.
About you.
About this body.
These sensations.

How can I ask?
Where is the space?
The time?
So very close, our bodies touching.
You want it, need it.
But why so far away?
How do you do that?
Ikkyu can’t move.
Me? Can’t stop running.
