The plight of flight is flooring me
but
soaring me
I fight for sight
lulling the
ignorant to sleep
So we're seen
wading through
the minutia stream
So we breathe
for once at least
in your infinite infancy
Caught you with your guard down
Mistaking me for a disease
I fight for sight
lulling the
ignorant to sleep
The plight of flight
is flooring me
but soaring me
Hasty opposition
watch as the favor slips from your reach
I don't want to be here
down here
Yeah, I don't want to be here
all the way down here
climb back on up dear
float with me forever
float with me forever
I don't want to be here
down here
Hush my baby don't you drown
ashes ashes we all fall down
so many lullabies to sing
while you deface the ageless wing
you say you know but the words aren't clear
you say you hear but you just can't listen
if the world to you is a sour dream
then why has it taken you so long to bleed?
cut the lids from your eyes
embrace the pain in your side
use the noose of your twisted gut
muffle the infants cries
who cries?
Your cries.
