Min
fa parte dell'universo. È una stella fioca e cadente, ma è viva.
Non aveva amato tanto l'eclisse del sole quanto vederlo riapparire.
Se avesse voluto davvero seriamente morire, ci sarebbe riuscita da
tempo. Ama il limite, sfiorarlo e tirarsi indietro. Oppure non lo
ama. Lo odia, magari. Ma non importa. Magari raggiungere il limite le
dà l'impressione di aver compiuto un gesto straordinario, di aver
dato uno scopo alla propria vita, non foss'altro che quello di
prolungarla a dispetto di se stessa. È il capitano di entrambe le
squadre, si dichiara guerra da sola ma si trattiene da ogni vittoria
decisiva perché questo implicherebbe anche una sconfitta decisiva.

Please
give me a second grace
Please give me a second face
I've fallen far down
The first time around
Now I just sit on the ground in your way
Now if it's time to recompense for what's done
Come, come sit down on the fence in the sun
And the clouds will roll by
And we'll never deny
It's really too hard for to fly.
Please tell me your second name
Please play me your second game
I've fallen so far
For the people you are
I just need your star for a day.
So come, come ride in my my street-car by the bay
For now I must know how fine you are in your way
And the sea sure as I
But she won't need to cry
For it's really too hard for to fly.
