Starfish

from Nausea by Ardra

/

lyrics

For I am nothing greater than a name,
I plead, deliver me from myself.

If they showed you a glass jar and floating in it
was my lifeless heart, would you recognize it?
Perhaps they showed you my liver or lungs.
would you recognize them?
What if you saw me with longing
the way you look at your [own] arms and hands?

Detached and disembodied.
Beneath our faces, clothes, words, and feelings
are power and sorrow:
Power of inventors, sorrow of the disconnected.

Between so many cities and two days,
forever guided by an inner knell:
As one knows nothing of me,
the other knows me no longer.

Condemned to be free.
Life like water: dreadful, shallow, [and] lonesome;
but the great difficulty is to say Yes to life.

I am, and nothing more.
