Flock of Dimes
Minor Justice
I saw a life between the two of us
Each moment’s notice by machine
Imagine isolation, blurring of its edges
I am most alone when I fail to see

A minor justice
Speak free
Still courage
Fight for me

A momentary smile across your eyes
So this force of habit still can thrill
And if it is your wish that we no longer speak of it
I will love the lie that keeps us still

In minor justice
Sweet release
Tiny pleasures
Human need

[Spoken]
What do you dream of?
Every morning, to forget my dreams
I separate
I speak the language
I prepare my response

And as I feel myself dissolve
I remember
This is what I dreamed of
A cycle that repeats
Water, evaporating into air
Becoming the sky

So I can light a match
But I can’t tell you what fire is made of
And if we wait for an answer
We will be waiting for a very long time

So what I wish for you
I wish for all of us
We seem to be awake
But we are dreaming
We seem to be many
But we are not
