lyrics

Pale illuminations powering up,
Moonlight losing out to rays.
The slow adjustments stepping through the house
Come to rest when I wake.

All the words that still hang between these walls;
The illusions, the sighing, the tears,
And the making up and the words we forgot
Echo untroubled when I am far from here.

The sound of my heart’s booming through the room.
All the life we lent to this space –
The slump of bed, the scoring on the floor,
The bolts and shutters now in place.
