The Midnight Pine

Away

Born again
Crown of sin
Mother night
And father thin
Light and fate
And all too late
Grown alone
We wish and waste
Away

Empty streets
A world asleep
Crowded with
Whatever dream
Street lamps humming
Harmonies
Escape into the
Evening breeze
Away

Which right turn brought down the sky
Questions bend from when to why
Sun is clawing at these eyes
Alone
Dead in lines engaging calls
Atone
Echoes bouncing off the halls
Of empty city canyon walls

Apart from this
Apocalypse
The tide will rise
The moon’ll shifts
Grant a wish
A child’s plan
For clouds to lift me
Up with them
Away
Away

Which right turn brought down the sky
Questions bend from when to why
Sun is clawing at these eyes
Alone
Dead in lines engaging calls
Atone
Echoes bouncing off the halls
Of empty city canyon walls
I will catch you when you fall
I’ll always catch you when you fall
