Black Carbon

|
Can you taste it?
Doesn't it burn your eyes
And make your throat run dry?
We breathe it all our lives
They erased it
It's like we don't exist
They don't care if we die
We are the sacrifice
We are the people that the future left behind
Slipping beneath the tide
Can you hear me cry
Out to the stars beyond this dim black carbon sky?
Can you hear it?
Doesn't it hurt your brain
And keep you up at night?
We're told to stay inside
Persevere it
But no one is listening
To hear me say goodbye
We are the sacrifice
Laid on the altar to the gods of your desire
Slowly, they bleed us dry
Can you hear me cry
Out to the stars beyond this dim black carbon sky?
We are the sacrifice
We are the signal static fading in the night
Suffering out of sight
Can you hear me cry
Out to the stars beyond this dim black carbon sky?

Moonrise
05:25

I sailed away across the Atlantic
and watched the Moonrise
over the Nordic Sea,
struck the ice and thought it romantic
that we were sinking
like Jack and
Roses all around my grave in memory.
Promise when I'm gone, that you'll remember me.
Now don't you cry
for there is sunshine
on the dark side of the sky
So drift away,
but I can't follow this time.
I caught a wave around the Antarctic
and heard the whale songs
rising up from the deep,
dove beneath and found it cathartic
to see the clouds refracted through
Waves of solace and despair crash over me.
Motionless, I sink and stare in reverie
so set me free and
don't you cry
for there is sunshine
on the dark side of the sky
So drift away,
but I can't follow you this time.
There is a rising dawn
beyond the darkest night,
so float away,
but I won't follow this time.

Winter soldier,
we grew older
than our hearts.
You love me like a fire.
Let me scorch.
I'm burning to the core,
but I feel colder.
Snowy owl,
not a sound,
the silent strike.
You love me like a poison.
Give me more.
Put me on the floor,
because I feel colder.
You buried me,
the blizzards came.
I waited for your touch.
You walked away
and I still wait.
You never woke me up
and I grew colder.

Stardust
04:22

|
Did you know
that I miss you
when you sleep?
I imagine
what you dream,
waiting for your awakening.
So I wrote
down our memories
and it read
like a story
and I wondered
if it really was happening.
What if it all was just a dream?
I know hope
can be trying,
but when you
are beside me
I believe
you and I can do anything.
And you'll say
that I'm lying,
but it's true
that you saved my life
and I want you to know what you mean to me.
What if it all was just a dream?
Would you still wake up next to me?
And if we lived a thousand lives,
would you recognize me every time?
What if we're stardust in the void?
Would you hear the music in the noise?
What if we're seashells in the waves?
Would you have it any other way?

We're connected by a thread,
but we've got cans on the ends.
When you're lost without a friend,
whisper my name into it and I will hear you calling.
I got all tied up in you,
so don't you cut me loose.
I've got so much left to prove
and I won't give up on you.
We're connected by a thread,
with a kite tied to the end.
When you're tumbling in the wind,
just remember when I said that I will catch you, darling.
I got all tied up in you,
so please don't make me prove
that I'll be fine without you,
because I don't know if it's true.

Tears of my City
04:00
|

|
Into the sunset,
eyes burning like a mirage,
we haven't escaped yet,
but we are already lost.
I left the world behind and I'm not sorry.
I said all my goodbyes and I'm not crying.
Like rain on the boulevard,
this pain melting from my heart,
it glows in the neon lights
over the tears of my city.
Under the moonlight,
we dance among falling stars
with seconds to midnight
and holes in our bleeding hearts.
I left the world behind and I'm not sorry.
I said all my goodbyes and I'm not crying.
Like rain on the boulevard,
this pain melting from my heart,
it glows in the neon lights
over the tears of my city.
Like waves of a distant storm,
they crash on the rocky shore.
I watch as the ships unmoor,
riding the tears of my city.
As water streams like veins,
encircling the storm drain,
the sewers gleam, amain
with iridescent rain.
My city bleeds in vain.
I feel my heart begin to drain
again
Like rain on the boulevard,
this pain melting from my heart,
it glows in the neon lights
over the tears of my city.
Like waves of a raging storm,
they tear through the stilted boards
and sweep me away once more
under the tears of my city.
drown in the tears of my city
