She's sitting in a carriage being jostled by the motion Overhearing conversation, the grinding of the steel Scenes fly past the curtains that the darkness paints uncertain And memories are meaningless, her motives are concealed
Through countrysides and mountains and the village by the ocean Where the stranger's waiting for her in the plushness of his car Winding and rewinding, pushing all directions Till the limit of implosions, which is never very far
All I ever wanted to see Was just invisible to me
Out there in the distance the horizon meets resistance The summer falls down drunken on the longest of the days Rushing past the ruins of the churches and the Porsches Reflected in the mirrors and the echoes in the haze
