Gabo the Other - All the Answers Are Here Lyrics

The plants have all been watered
The tears have all been shed
The duende has been summoned
The sorrows haven't wed

You came into my fortress
Alone and unafraid
I once gave you my kingdom
A hundred thousand stares
(A million billion glares)

For all the books we've written
We can't articulate
This deep and profund sadness
We loathe and yet embrace
A history of injustice
Has no season nor end
You seem to have forgotten
I long for your caress

I dreamt my skin was feathers
A blessed hummingbird
And told to drop from heaven
And forced to fall from grace
And waiting at the abyss
A cage, a love, a nest

With you I have recovered
The joy, the bless, the faith
To feel without the barriers
To sex without the shame

Your ownerless expression
Of loss and love's repair
Your heart lies there unburdened
Your eyes themselves a prayer

You say the words and mean it
A dream you can't forget
