Mazzy Xibalba Star

Mazzy Xibalba Star (Into Dust)

Skin...
Crawling...
Restless then gone, I mend.
Come hide, Today.
Come hide me, away.
My frowns, broken for you.
When Xibalba, leaves us as dust.
And her name, it, slowly becomes 
us...
Our minds trembled when hearts 
came near.

I should, obviously be jaded,
But find, in the midst of pain.
I could heal myself, crossing over.
I could steal what's left of all my 
faith,
Wonder your fate...
There you are, restless through 
dawn.
With Xibalba, leaving us as dust.
And her name, it, slowly, becomes 
us...
Burning out for us...
Burning out for us...

I must confess I do not understand some of the words so I am left curious as to the meaning. Still I enjoyed reading your words. You had an inspired day yesterday.

I will soup mail the meaning to you. It is actually quite clever on my part but takes a little explaining lol. You'll really enjoy this!
