But all my lights are is degrees of comfort
When I still need survival, give me
Contrast - sharpness, need -
So I
See the beauty in the glass bulbs, so I
Don't tremble in the half-
Dark, give me
Life - and death, and passion so I
Will see the details through my
Foggy windshield, my
Perspective, so I
Finally know how to be full - so that
All my lights become
Degrees of power - degrees of feeling -
Degrees of life.
