A floor above

Come on higher, please climb higher
Climb up out of the sinking sand
Bring your heartbeat and join this band
Let’s make medleys and burn the desire

Bring fire, wood
Burn brighter than the sun
Flow, please flow like a river
Sing,
Please sing till the cords break
Breathe, just breathe dear!

Pay attention to the signs and
Know that nothing will kill the fire
None is above a flaw, inquire
You sometimes get what you demand

Love isn’t found in pictures,
Words, holding heads
Those that experience agape
Know nothing of it,
It comes for sinning
Sinning without remorse

Jinsi gani unaweza kutembea katika mtego,
Na sio kukamatwa?
