generation gaps.
i spoke to you in English,
you didn't understand.
so, i speak to you in Urdu,
& you don't understand.
i get it now,
no matter what language i use,
you will never understand.

Explosions in the Sky ♫ Your Hand in Mine

Brother, I stand beneath any sky for you.
No, it was not a dream.
No, it is not just a dream.

Sister, I stand beneath any sky for you.
No, it was not a dream.
No, it is not just a dream.

Sometimes, the wheels don't turn,
&my mind is perpetually stuck on strength.

Then, I miss you.
When, every time I inhale.
Then, I love you.
When, every time I exhale.

You, the only home I have ever known.
Love, the only home I now know.
(Home, always found in people rather than places.)

I stand beneath every sky for you,
my brother, my sister, my home.
I stand on golden sands,
life in our hands.

It is a wonder how
only we seem to
notice.
Only we witness.
The sky & the ocean
run together.
