Broken Sunrise

I woke up this morning and the mountains were high Time to die again in the morning sunrise that never lies I dont know the Girl I am today; purging memories of the heart The cold autumn night connecting her lips to the warmth of emancipations departure Redemption lies at sea so we sail under the rainbow sky Revolutionaries making decrees for the privelidged to set aside So I buried my dysphoria where my hands still felt the loss Somehown I could still rise high through the ashes of battles waged and lost Give me a short reprieve from the way you seem to look at me Memories of abusive seas crashing into tides of apologies Believing the notion that your ocean that wont let me disappear Finding a safety net for my high-wire act to hold my weighted tears of fear If you want to hold my hand and venture into the land of the dead I’ll seek your loving shelter in the coming storm that waits ahead I’ll keep singing my last song in a place where grey skies hum along So cast away those dark eyes where meloncholy lies belong Cause you brought the shine and I brought the sun Where angels and demons waged battles; never won When I walk alone; its with hopes and dreams that your hand is true And ashes will fall on stolen hearts that pave the ways to make it through
