Savannah

from Damaged in Transit by Phileas

lyrics

I have a life, she says
Back where I call home
You wouldn’t know it here and now
But I’m not like this at all
I was raised to keep it nice
And here I am in paradise
Letting go
Scaring myself
I’m a prisoner of the nine to five
Can’t you see the tired lines
Too many long lunches
And late nights
You think you like me
But you don’t know what’s inside
I’ll cheat you
I’ll let you down
Sunbaked into submission
You dream your days away
Lounging by the water’s edge
Surveying the potential prey
And in a night
Of dazzling light
You’ll find your feet again
On the savannah
You’re as sleek as steel
A machine
Behind fly-eyes of glinting green
Designed
With a swimsuit in mind
For the here and now
You’re gone tomorrow
Back to a city somewhere
Anonymity somewhere
A wormhole away
