Sundowning

I control the ships the sails

the open gates in fairy-tales

move through me inside it's free

but I'll sell you things you didn't see

I was stripped of teen-age skin

in the silent sound of dust again

I lost something in silver sky

I'm not your only fucking star

and I'm no more than who you are

show me to a clearing

reassemble all you've kept

and the bones we burned you resurrect

I'll show you what i'm fearing

Sundowning

I don't need it back

sundowning

a new zodiac

sundowning

sundowning

let the words ring

I control the ships the seas

of fairy-tales and falsities

of desert sand orion sky

revealing light and starless nights

of purity and father blame

of memory and mother name

it's all the same sometimes to me

it's all the same I don't believe

That I'm your only fucking star

I'm no more than who you are

keep me from the feeling

reassemble all you've kept

and the bones I burned you resurrect

don't you hate me when I'm kneeling?

when I'm healing?

Sundowning

I don't need it back

sundowning

a new zodiac

sundowning

sundowning

let the words ring

sundowning...
