"Embryo"






Take me to the city, Love
That's where I want to be
Because it is so dull at home
And nothing pleasures me

I am not afraid and though
These memories weigh me down,
For the night we can go
And leave them with the town

For I have become restless, Love
I cannot stand to stay
So let us go quickly now, 
Together and fade away

Into the crowds that fill the street
Through both the day and night
Into the perpetual energy,
And colored, electric light

from my window I can see
The tips of the towers tall
Like arms reaching fore Heaven's knee 
And Heaven's sending as if to fall

Lightning bolts and a driving rain
To the sleepless city below
but tonight, no fear, He won't explain
So quickly, Love let us go.
