no boundary to desire

there is no boundary to our desire
heart does not sink at knowledge of the shock
the human mind is not forced to retire

each child is a reflection of its sire
an earlier ticking of the same old clock
there is no boundary to our desire

not knowing that we still have to aspire
beyond the paltry moments in our stock
the human mind is not forced to retire

these songs have not an echo in the choir
we move and there is nothing that may block
there is no boundary to our desire

we beg and beg to find out the denier
and there is naught but silence on the rock
the human mind is not forced to retire

these are the silences of daily fire
not one word spoken that we may not mock
there is no boundary to our desire
the human mind is not forced to retire
