I’m sprawled alone on the floor Uncomfortably And I’m a navy object down down below the veneer of the sea Thinking of all the things I have seen.. And wish I hadn’t Behind the curtains; In the dark As the spectators see nothing because they cannot see beyond the play because it keeps them from looking farther But I have, unfortunately The day we handed you over to God All alone, in silence and I’m tormented There is a song whispering on the stereo full of so much love and joy I wish I could rip the benevolent sound from the air and consume it, and let it fill up every void that is left in my soul, because I feel it less and less day by day as fate sunders me slowly like the song is lulling me now to darkness And although I try to inhale the spirit of the song, Nothing changes I’m still the color of this empty night A time that might as well not have happened I am the deepest ocean as the song plays indifferently

Night 1
I’m sprawled alone on the floor Uncomfortably And I’m a navy object down down below the veneer of the sea Thinking of all the things I have seen.. And wish I hadn’t Behind the curtains; In the dark As the spectators see nothing because they cannot see beyond the play because it keeps them from looking farther But I have, unfortunately The day we handed you over to God All alone, in silence and I’m tormented There is a song whispering on the stereo full of so much love and joy I wish I could rip the benevolent sound from the air and consume it, and let it fill up every void that is left in my soul, because I feel it less and less day by day as fate sunders me slowly like the song is lulling me now to darkness And although I try to inhale the spirit of the song, Nothing changes I’m still the color of this empty night A time that might as well not have happened I am the deepest ocean as the song plays indifferently
