I beheld the lantern sky It was as if you were born into it Another candle to warm the desolation Another light for the desperate You are already one with the earth The heavens did not send you You came anyway To find in yourself, what cannot be spoken These dreams and visions given to you With their seams threaded into the universe, were not meant to find their way upon your tongue Oh how well your fingers make them know to me All that you make, as an extension of yourself Is not in vain Though wrought in folly As fools live among us as if they were the wise How shameful is the way they carry their head Is there no better place than upon their shoulders A monsters face will find it's place As do all things, in the lantern sky Constellations are eternal, even in the temporary Can one light hold the nocturnal wraiths at bay Still you light it That the fates may see Searching for wicks, in the lantern sky
