Starry Night Dreaming Night
Starry night- dreaming night
I couldn't put a roof over you
Not even if I tried
Your infinite expanse,
I try and breathe it in
Holding you in the pores of my skin
The calluses of my fingers
The accidental and forgotten scars
That litter my skin like stars.
Starry night- dreaming night
Your rustling wind breathes me in,
In one long breath
And then exhales me
Pulling at my wild tendrils
Always too long for comfort
That would usually weigh me down.
They feel light now
Little wisps behind me.
Starry night- dreaming night
Take me to the center of the universe
Take me to the birthplace of all time
Let me leave you all troubles
Every fright from which I'm trying to hide
Kick my anger to the dust
And let me make room for a better dawn.
Starry night- dreaming night
I'm on sanity withdrawal
I haven't got a clue
Where I'm going, or if I'll even get
"There"
Maybe that's why I'm hiding,
Talking to the sky.
