"June" Lyrics

Build me a bridge so I can climb to the top
and take a big breath of air.
No one can tell me what is wrong
'cause I am the only one here.

Life kept on running faster than me,
I could not stop her so she kindly stopped for me.

Show me a mountain,
I am ready to see it sitting right in my hands.
My love is an ocean
but I can't even swallow one grain of sand.

Oh, often I couldn't stand the stench of my own self,
but still I never wanted to be anybody else.

People are searching through their black abyss,

looking for all the things that they could have missed.
But I've never found a quick way to cure...

Give me some time and as it goes by
I'll try to figure out what makes sense.
It seems to me that everything should come together in the end.

My conscience once asked me to always be kind,
I let her down but she's still here by my side.

Light me a fire, my hands are shaking,
they look like the moon.
A sweater is nice but a friendship is better
'cause it'll keep you through 'til June.

Oh, when we were kids there was so much to climb,
and we screwed up so many times, but at least we tried.
