Turning over and over
Making the sight of sun and moon
Open up my eyes
This spark cools down, starts again
Falling asleep, waking up, dreaming
Falling into the ocean…

Long time jealousy I hear in this Earth
Crawling through the space between
What has always been there and what has
Always not…
I never could have imagined how
Painful and beautiful it’s all been
Heaven is close to a place like this.

Rolling over my time with my tongue
Such a bittersweet symphony that plays
Part by part, pacing and rushing itself just for me
Life, or something like it
Never sounds like it should
But, simply is what it sounds.

Angels part ways
Begging for their destiny to be taken
We are where angels lose their way
Brothers and sisters, I’m right here with you
As the darkness
And the light is slowly erased

It’s all just the price we pay
To be human.
