Further than the DNA
But nearer than your love
The smallest hell
Ever created
Just needs two
It just needs two
And one emotion
A destination
Never ending
Never reaching
Endless longing in motion
Open the door a little more
Take a look inside
It ends with your fear
To fall while falling with the fallen
A dance in the air with you
This is a neat little creation of yours
Thanks for asking me in
Without any question who I am
Thanks for asking me in
Without any question who I am
Further than the DNA
But nearer than your love
The smallest hell
Ever created
Just needs two
It just needs two
Like never ending
Endless motion
Never reaching love
Endless longing for you
