Long Dim Trip
It’s been a long dim dance with me, I am surprised,
So surprised by your resolution
Looking into
Your eye, I saw the destination of a long, long trip
And I’ve been lost before
But now the coast rolls up and in trees
I rest with cool, cold eyes and a heart
Going thump
Thump thump
Kick, goes the beat of the drum mourning something
Lost at sea
In the ocean
Riding storms to whole new worlds and without me
Signal fire I send up, just like me,
Mourning your love I send up for lightning
And down, down, down it comes
All to curse you
All to nurse you back into health
Lost to a cool, cold sigh from a heart
Going thump
Thump thump
In the dim light, reaching its thorns out on vines
and you escaped
I’ve been lost before, but this is nothing
and you will thank me
You'll thank me.
