Mar 2016
I've got the black moon in my shirt sleeve
it casts its shadow down around us
I've let the flower heads poke through my soul
wondering if I was dead

I caught the meaning between the hushed words
muttered beneath the sea
and when the morning light fills the mountain side
her smile begins to fade

cast away the words that tie us together
I believe in everything
nothing means the world to me
Iā€™m an anchor fixed on fixating

capturing the remnants of a living thing
arriving to escape it all
our love is just a symphony
trying to encase the song

Ive been wandering for a wicked time
chasing after birds to lead me home
tumbling after ashes in the breeze
from a fire burning inside her soul
