Who Paints the Sky?
The Sun rises
And the Sun sets
Over the ocean.
Which is more beautiful?
The rising reminds me I haven’t slept,
And the setting is the prelude to your ghost.

The Candle Unveils You
Haunt me for years
I couldn’t care less
At least the old you
Wanted what was best.
Or at least you were better
At lying through your teeth
Than I am
At handling the grief.

And I pray
That you
Don’t turn him
Into me.

Before this is all over.
You’re the one to blame.

That I’ve been trying to prove
It’s the only reason
I’ve been killing myself
Out here on the Devil Blue

You Were Already Gone, Weren’t You?
My captain taught me
That when the bottom of the sun
Rests on the edge of the horizon
The sun has already gone below
And the Darkness just takes a moment
To arrive.
Maybe that’s the way it was
With you.
