My Dearest Moth, Is a baptism what I need Or an official drowning? I suppose both will suffice In deep or shallow waters But will your voice still resound When my soul's asleep yet again? Will its essence be able to resist rest? Or can I count on you to keep me in dreams Until the perfect moment comes for me to scream "Wake me up" Is death so sweet yet so morbid? Are the fruits made of paper? Is a giant bird carrying the weight of the world With its eggs as our souls? Do we fall and crack open Destined for Hell Or does the bird get tired And drop the heavy burdens Telling his boss we fell at our will I'm trying so hard to decipher your codex But the hardest part is figuring out Whether or not you want it broken Just keep singing me to sleep (I prefer you over ghosts)
