tom cipullo - how to get heat without fire lyrics

beneath the dark floor
there has always been love
but the trick is
how to get down to it?
shall i tear my way down
like a tiger clawing
the floorboards, when this
tearing down is what scarred you?
whose mother is there
in the dark trying hard
to hide you from the memory
of the floorboards in flame?
how to get heat without fire?
to coax light open?
to ease you new into
the world if i am not
a mother, or a beloved?
pull back? peel back dead
bark, pull back the boards
we trample, throw each other
down on and through some days?
turn the floor into a pool
we can dive deep into
cradle the mothers
let the animals swim their ways?
has music ever saved anyone?
then i will reenter my life
as sound
as notes strung like pearls
that you have yearned
to enter
i will be sound
i will be sound
and silence
listening.ma
