Navio ancorado no ar

Something between the scent of the sea
And the home of someone I once was
Between shyness and what's laid bare
Between the mystery of the abstract
And the perfect lines of a square
You linger between what I want and what I run from
A meeting of courage and the fear of living
A warning of danger in a safe place
A ship anchored in the air
A ship anchored in the air

We're always, somehow, searching for a place to go, paying attention to the next step
I guess the corners, or the corner, are in this looking ahead, or even looking back
The doubt about what the whole could have been, which involves a choice, right?
And what makes the now and the next moment too

It's not the past, but it's not the future either
The line that splits the earth in half
The almost of our mouths before a kiss
Every part of a body you can't see in the mirror
I kill the guilt, you save the desire
A ring, a commitment, that's our flag

Living you reveals what I hide within me
Though I hold back, I keep it all here
In pauses, in suspicions, between lines
Cowardice is my weakness
And seeing you breaks me apart (breaks me apart)
Spreads the cards (spreads the cards)
Exposes the obvious (exposes the obvious)
My two paths (my two paths)
Now untied
In a ship anchored in the air
(In a ship anchored in the air)

(I kill the guilt, you save the desire)
(The beautiful night, the stars)
(The cold waters of the Pacific)
(I kill the guilt)
(All to ask myself)
(In all this space, your name)

I don't know if I just liked
Thinking about that image
And staying
Without choosing anything for a while
Just
