Not Together

from God Knows What by Conductors

/

lyrics

When we became alone together 
I thought all curtains would be 
torn asunder.

But they do remain
unencumbered.
O how they remain
unencumbered.

You’re not s’posed to be 
estranged from those you kiss,
but every one's
left me forsaken.

There is an eternal love 
I've felt its trace,
but only tasted crumbs.

Seems that we're close -
walking a tight rope.

It’s not a thing that can be found.
Still I search unceasingly.
What does it take to make
sincerity?

Intimacy seems so easy
when I see it only
on the TV.

O what a funny thing
thinking of marrying.
O what a silly thing
thinking of marrying.

Disconnectedness
isn’t only in romance.
Separate friends and family
also warrant intimacy.

There is an eternal love 
I've felt its trace,
but only tasted crumbs.

I lean in close -
you lean against the ropes.

I thought we didn’t want
to be so separate,
but everything
becomes a contest.

When we became alone together 
I thought all curtains would be 
torn asunder.

I can’t open them
all on my own.
I can’t open them
with just a diamond ring.

Love is not made
only by human hands.
It happens in between
those who love sincerity.

Conductors Chicago, Illinois

"Mona tried to tell me
To stay away from the train line
She said that all the railroad men
Just drink up your blood like wine
An’ I said, 'Oh, I didn’t know that
But then again, there’s only one I’ve met
An’ he just smoked my eyelids
An’ punched my cigarette' "
