After the fall
After the last brontides
Strikes and crashes
Of brilliant sound and sight
Are you awake, darling
Listening to our hearts beat
Before the ice storm
Before we stand still
Frozen and buried
Under December’s will
With your eyes open
And your gaze unbroken
And you are radiance
Supernal and underground

Pilgrims

|
I hear Apollo
In the voices
Of children
Glowing
Unknowing
Who wander the leas
And taigas
As pilgrims
Gnatcatchers
And martyrs
We see them as one thing
And never see them coming
Like Iris in daylight
All is right

Wanderlust

|
You see me as I see you
Hear me now, I’m without time and melody
This is the way the world ends
In time, and with melody
That’s not the last of my wanderlust
Piercing voices, they know me, they know me
Ghosts from moving pictures
They know me, they know me
They have not lived the last of their wander lust
I look like I do in your mind

When I Fall

When I fall
You can’t raise me
I’m a believer
Of unsung lullabies
Visiting in the night
I am not Atlas
You are not the Earth
But I watch
As you shrivel in blue
And there’s nothing I can do
I am by you now
I am waiting and taking
As much of you in as I can
You don’t notice a thing
You breathe with machines
You are not Sleeping Beauty
You are the one that I love
I’m a lighthouse
I’m your beacon
As your body weakens
I’m told that there is a season
But I don’t know where it begins

Red Sky
06:58
|

|
Red sky at dawn
Red sky at dusk
There’s always something
Trying to ruin us
Red sky at dawn
Red sky at dusk
There’s always something
Trying to save us
Red sky at dawn
Red sky at dusk
There’s always something
Waiting for us
There is a season
To be taken away

Hurry Back
05:33
|
|||
|
I am only
I am only waiting
For the rest to guide me
Like I am lightning
If you catch
If you catch me
At your side, fast asleep
Wake me slowly
Don’t leave
Don’t leave yet
And if you must, then hurry back
As fast as you can
