Millimeter
there is no space
in the millimeter between me and you
and the light turns suddenly blue
in the millimeter between you and me
I can see
a snapshot of an orange childhood
and you told me, come, come close
look at the sun setting into the sea
and you told me come, come close
the millimeter between them both
holds all of the dreams in the world
in the kilometer between me and you
no flowers bloom
and a cold white light fills the room
a speedometer with broken arms
cannot supply
the numbers that I need to fly
and you told me, come, come close
look at the sun setting into the sea
and you told me come, come close
the millimeter between them both
holds all of the dreams in the world
in the millimeter between pen and page
nothing's new
the same old soul I've had for years
I give to you
the millimeter 'bove the brow
cannot hide
the vast and hollow space
inside
