Erasing couldn’t beautify
The plague of being alone
Talking couldn’t purify
Hands washed over coals
Nausea spread far and wide
Objects command our desires
Forced to look deep inside
All we could see was the fire
Prophets couldn’t identify
The prospects for a poem
The poets couldn’t pacify
Words flashed through our minds
Fear just under the surface
Slow crumbling of empires
Hid our eyes from embrace
All we could we see was the fire
You walked through fire
You walked through fire
You walked through fire
You walked through fire
You said you’d last until you said goodbye
You said you’d last until you said goodbye
You said you’d last until you said goodbye
You said you’d last until you said goodbye
Asylum
Asylum
Asylum
Close your eyes to mystify
The future nature foretold
Touching couldn’t mollify
Floods beyond thresholds
Quietude caused our peaking
We hoped we could suspire
Hearts deep in the creaking
All we could see was the fire
You walked through fire
You walked through fire

Gone (original version)

The intrusion of silence
Masked our soft faces
Time through our hands
In a land without places
The pink moon goes out
Temperatures rising, when you’re gone
When the matches explode
Canyons flow over, when you’re gone
Winter of citrus
Children are breathless, when you’re gone
The boards marked with pollen
Creeks are all swollen, when you’re gone
When the sun goes down
The fires are climbing, when you’re gone
When the weeds get cold
Puzzles smolder, when you’re gone
When the bunkers are empty
Filled with darkness, when you’re gone
With the blue lights flashing
They start asking questions, when you’re gone
Sand in your sheets
Sweetness on snake tongues
We walked empty streets
Our movements were unsung
When you find you’re alone
In the comfort of home
Our world is bigger on the inside
When the doors are all gone
When you’re gone
When you’re gone
When you’re gone
When you’re gone
