Nights and the Dark

Now that we know what we are This illusion of time has no reason In a world where eyes never lied Achieve something to be remembered A burning ember reflection in your eyes Time stands still Once taught Now, diminished from sight Pick it up, pick up this World and run We have no time The powers to watch the sunrise A time to question, a time to fight Control the shadows of their disguise We have time The beauty, the obsession Put it in a can Inside, a host of trinkets and bullet slugs
