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
