Lyrics Meanwhile - Caroline Polachek

How do you know if a volcano is dead or just patient?
It's restless, like me
High above in the second sea
Our bathwater never cools
Meanwhile, out of the heavens
A swan plummets to Earth, transfixed

Down here where the woodlice work
Restless, like you
Both halves of this severed rock will crumble to sand
For if a thing can live, then it can also die
Meanwhile, walk beside me
The unretraceable path of God's lightning back to God
