As Is

[Verse 1]
Another walk wears the asphalt to shreds,
Flashes of light and rain live on the air.
Rhythmically, it hits the puddles—cries uncontrollably,
A delusion from within illuminates my face with a smile.

[Chorus]
I throw myself into the sky and begin to fly,
In an instant, I dissolve in the wind.
The night, with its rhythm, lets a rainbow flow through my blood,
Half;asleep Muse, oh, open the door.

[Verse 2]
Only silent films attract me today,
Black;and;white frames break up the everyday.
Cries from the soul relax the nerves,
Morning will come earlier for those who sleep.

[Chorus]
I throw myself into the sky and begin to fly,
In an instant, I dissolve in the wind.
The night, with its rhythm, lets a rainbow flow through my blood,
Half;asleep Muse, oh, open the door.

[Bridge — slightly spoken, like a toast or meditation]
I'm writing a new poem, a line in my head…
Thoughts of warm summer, of the sun, of the seas.
What's within me helps me live —
I won't miss the chance a new day brings.

[Outro — repeat softly, with echo]
Half;asleep Muse… open the door.
Rainbow flow through my blood…
I dissolve in the wind…
Yes, I.
Jah bless the new day.
