lyrics

The leaves spiral down as stairs
The ocean swims in our nightmares
The fire cleans out our empty affairs
The wind empties and then repairs
Night into day
Blue skies from gray
Feels far away

Tell this story to your daughter's heart
She collapsed under the weight of an upturned cart
Don't let yourself burn for a brand new start
What would have been broken is a work of art
White light from grey
Newborn from prey
So far away

Our numbered days have multiplied
Our cages have been set free
Our living lungs have atrophied
Our bitter debates will agree

Our names are carved upon this bark
Our love is a raging sea
Our eyes are embers spitting sparks
Our lips draw my air for me
So far away
From here
